Questioning what we are taught of the Semantics of Language.

in spirituality •  6 years ago 

I just experienced something interesting. I was responding to a meme someone had posted that said, "Say something nice about yourself. I AM ___.". I found myself responding with, "I AM that I AM. I AM EVERYTHING!"

My brother responds, "Elohiem"

My response, "huh?"

My brother responds, "When Jesus was asked if he was the son of of God and that was his answer. It translates in this context to mean; I am that I am"

My response, "Ah, thank you for clarifying. For some reason I am not seeing it the way it is written here. I keep seeing it as, "Me I Hole". Which in turn is translating to, " Me, I, Whole, ONE". I am seeing it backwards. I am dyslexic so that makes sense to me. Yet the words have meaning even backwards.

I am finding it very interesting that the word that Jesus used is translating to the same thing as I read backwards. It is bringing a question to my mind about the Semantic of Language and the written word as we know it. How many items have been twisted to be something else? How many have been strung together into one item?

I am getting a mental picture of acronyms. Thousands upon thousands of them. That many everyday items were shortened into acronyms, which may have then been shortened into pictographs or hieroglyphics. Holy mackerel! Okay, these images need to stop..lots to contemplate with that! They all have meanings hidden within the meanings. Each represent another aspect of it's self and how each is connected to the other.

Okay I think my mind is frying... to many images."

Blessings on your journeys my brothers. Hugs and love. You are loved. I love you.
