Communication assumes words transfer meaning — but meaning isn’t a definition, it’s embodied resonance shaped by individual experience.

My latest essay (5-minute read) explores how language, at best, is an invitation embodied co-experience, but mostly ends up as a kind of a semantic vertigo.

I'd argue meaning can have variable scope. Some meaning has the self (embodied self or otherwise) as a referent. Other meaning doesn't. If I tell you the traffic light is green, so you can walk, you catch the meaning. It isn't dependent on self.
