Definitions
Definitions (and the clarity thereof) are of paramount importance to discussions, and to life. Sometimes semantics get played around with and learning is inhibited, and often times there is no benefit from it. Sometimes... no... a lot of times people are thrown into a tailspin of confusion and conflict all due to word choice and semantics, but in the end, isn't it the physical portrayal of said words that actually matter anyways? I mean, people can say what they want and call things what they want, but in the end, its what they actually end up doing that makes an impact, whether that be good or bad. I guess what I'm driving at here is this: Don't fight over words. If you're going to fight over something, let it be actual action.
On another note, I love being back home in South Florida, even if its only for the weekend. And I love conversation that provokes thought. And that doesn't turn into a useless argument where the sole purpose it to be right, but rather to learn and promote growth.

I completely agree with you. It's even funny how lofty words can sometimes repel any kind of action you want to get out of people. Plus, most philosophical controversies are due to confusions over language, which is gay because a lot of the people are arguing for the same thing but are just picky about definitions. But philosophy aside, it seems better to "do" than just "say."
