Recap
From the previous word explosions…
1. We know YOU is a word.
In line with everything else you have a word for, YOU de-scribes what you is — a word — followed by what you ARE, what you DO, and what you HAVE, in that sequence.
- You are a word-using animal.
- You are 100% energy, 100% cells, 70% water, and 30% fire-air-earth.
- You are on a journey.
- You do respond non-stop 7/24 to words.
2. About WORDS we know…
- Everything you have a word for is a word.
- Everything you know is a word.
- A word by any other word is a word.
- Words are a prison.
- A word cannot be anything else.
- WORD (singular) and WORDS (plural) does/do nothing.
For anything to get done to or with words takes a word-user.
Having covered steps 1 & 2, in this word explosion we now follow the third step…

3.1 What YOU and WORDS have
You HAVE
Abilities. That’s all you have. If not, you wouldn’t be here. Nor would I. Nor would anything existing today.
Not only do you have abilities, but according to words, you have more abilities than you know or can manage in one go.
Wanna bet?
Betting may not be your thing, so I did the hard work for you. According to words, the grand total of your abilities is over 500! Hard to believe? You can look them up here.
But not to worry.
The only ability that counts is your ability to respond, also known as response-ability.
The sole purpose of the other 500-plus abilities is to support your ability to respond.
As you improve your ability to respond, also known as response-ability, every other ability improves at the same time.
More about the ability to respond in future word explosions.
Words HAVE
Nothing.
Thinking words possess or have anything pre-supposes they have the organs required. But words don’t have any (organs).
For a word/words to have anything — such as meaning — takes a word-user, that is you.

3. ELECTRIC QUOTES
.
“Words are all we have” said Samuel Beckett in his 1969 Nobel Prize for Literature acceptance speech.
What Samuel Beckett is saying, what electrified me and what may electrify you too, I think, is that the only difference between the wordless animals and the wordful animals, us, are words. That’s why the wordful are here and the wordless aren’t.
