agape

1. adv. & adj. a·gape (pronunciation)

In a state of wonder or amazement, as with the mouth wide open.

2. n. a·ga·pe (pronunciation)

Love that is spiritual, not sexual, in its nature.

[c.1600, from Gk. agapan "greet with affection, love" (used by early Christians for their "love feast" held in connection with the Lord's Supper), from agapan "to love," of unknown origin. In modern use, often in simpler sense of "Christian love" (1856, frequently opposed to eros as "carnal or sensual love").]

Maybe you could elaborate on the definition of it or the meaning of it to you?

Fearlessness =

From the thesaurus

The quality of mind enabling one to face danger or hardship resolutely

TheFreeDictionary =

Without fear; brave

For me it means that we have elaborated on our own life purpose and decided which direction we are taking resolutely and with focus

When we don't know where we are going and why, life can be full of fear

quintessence

quin·tes·sence

The pure, highly concentrated essence of a thing.

[early 15c., in ancient and medieval philosophy, "pure essence, substance of which the heavenly bodies are composed," lit. "fifth essence," from M.Fr. quinte essence (14c.), from M.L. quinta essentia, from L. quinta, fem. of quintus "fifth" + essentia (see essence). Loan-translation of Gk. pempte ousia, the "ether" added by Aristotle to the four known elements (water, earth, fire, air) and said to permeate all things. Its extraction was one of the chief goals of alchemy. Sense of "purest essence" (of a situation, character, etc.) is first recorded 1580s.]

kaleidoscope

ka·lei·do·scope

1. A tube-shaped optical instrument that is rotated to produce a succession of symmetrical designs by means of mirrors reflecting the constantly changing patterns made by bits of colored glass at one end of the tube.
2. A constantly changing set of colors.
3. A series of changing phases or events: a kaleidoscope of illusions.

[1817, lit. "observer of beautiful forms," coined by its inventor, Sir David Brewster (1781-1868), from Gk. kalos "beautiful" + eidos "shape" (see -oid) + -scope, on model of telescope, etc. Figurative meaning "constantly changing pattern" is first attested 1819 in Lord Byron, whose publisher had sent him one.]



You can go into Mark Twain's material and prove anything you want. He was against war. He was for war. He was against rich people and he was for them. He was a kaleidoscope."

~Hal Holbrook

analysis

a·nal·y·sis

a. The separation of an intellectual or material whole into its constituent parts for individual study.
b. The study of such constituent parts and their interrelationships in making up a whole.

[1580s, "resolution of anything complex into simple elements" (opposite of synthesis), from M.L. analysis, from Gk. analysis "a breaking up," from analyein "unloose, release, set free," from ana "up, throughout" + lysis "a loosening," from lyein "to unfasten" (see lose). Psychological sense is from 1890. Phrase in the final (or last) analysis (1844), translates Fr. en dernière analyse.]

COURAGE

having the courage to look in the mirror & ask the question "who am I"

having the courage to face all of who we are....the good, the bad, & the ugly.

having the courage to accept with love what we cannot change

having the courage to change what we can change

Courage is something that we need & use every day of our lives, to a lesser or greater degree.


To me having courage to face all our trials is soooooooo important.

Hi Everyone,

My favourite words are, wait for it, Contronyms. These are words where the same word means the exact opposite, depending on how you use it. For example, "dust" which means to put fine particles on something, or to remove fine particles from something. Or the word "fast" which means moving quickly, or stationary.

Of course there are lots of them, far too many to post here, but I think you get the jist.

Best regards,

Steve
