"The gift of God to this enlightened age is the knowledge of the oneness of mankind and of the fundamental oneness of religion. War shall cease between nations, and by the will of God the Most Great Peace shall come; the world will be seen as a new world, and all men will live as brothers."
Abdu'l-Baha1

"O my God! O my God! Unite the hearts of Thy servants, and reveal to them Thy great purpose. May they follow Thy commandments and abide in Thy law. Help them, O God, in their endeavor, and grant them strength to serve Thee. O God! Leave them not to themselves, but guide their steps by the light of Thy knowledge, and cheer their hearts by Thy love. Verily, Thou art their Helper and their Lord."
Bahá’u’lláh2

PROMPT: July 20th - Write about some of the words that were introduced in the year you were born according to Merriam-Webster dictionary by referring to the website below:

Words Coined in 1946

So many thought provoking words to chose between. I'm not saying I'm a logophile, but I certainly don't suffer from logophobia. I have both the Oxford and Collins dictionaries saved to my Web Favorites. I saved this web page to my Web Favorites, so now I have three dictionaries I can access online. I will check this page again to investigate the other words.


zombify: "to turn (an active alert person) into a zombie"3
unclichéd: "not hackneyed or unoriginal : not clichéd"4
roadkill: (1) "the remains of an animal that has been killed on a road by a motor vehicle"' (2) "one that falls victim to intense competition".5

Zombify and roadkill sounds like two words that could come in handy during the next presidential election. Especially when it come to writing political poetry, and--while I attempt to avoid political arguments--I have been known to write political poems. I picked unclichéd because I like the sound of the word. You know how that goes, sometimes you hear or read a word that leaves pleasant echoes in your thoughts, and that what unclichéd does.

DAY 2435: “I like good strong words that mean something…” ― Louisa May Alcott, Little Women
What are three or four strong words? Why do you think they are strong?

Strong Words:
Unity, Love, Equality, and Questions

Unity, love, equality, and questions are interconnected, because they are spiritual attributes that can be expressed through human interaction and material civilization. Questions is a strong word because it encourages human beings to investigate scientific, religious, and personal truth without depending on someone elses opinion. Equality--whether it is gender, racial, or another aspect--is necessary for individuals to attain their full potentials as human beings. Love, when it is unselfish, is the magnet that draws people together in unity.

"The utterance of God is a lamp, whose light is these words: Ye are the fruits of one tree, and the leaves of one branch. Deal ye one with another with the utmost love and harmony, with friendliness and fellowship. He Who is the Daystar of Truth beareth Me witness! So powerful is the light of unity that it can illuminate the whole earth. The one true God, He Who knoweth all things, Himself testifieth to the truth of these words."
Baha'u'llah6
