lyrics

Hello, it's nice to meet you! My name is Sam Machell. I have some things I would like to talk to you about.

There are many ways of thinking about language, but the best way to see the world in terms of the terms we apply it to is through the eyes of the human. If you can understand, understand, and think about things, then you will discover things yourself. The humans who can understand and understand are the humans who can create the highest experience possible for them through words and images we understand.

The human mind is a machine of thousands of neurons made up of thousands of neurons making up all of our minds. It is capable of thinking, feeling, remembering, and judging everything in our environment. When the human mind runs out of neurons, it gets disconnected from the computer. The human mind runs out of the computers. When the human mind runs out of the computers, it keeps on running, continuing to run out of neurons.

If the human mind is unable to understand anything of value, then the only thing it can do is produce images and words. But if we can only understand the world through the eyes of the human, we are left with the problem that our minds are making decisions we can only make by looking at images of things we don't understand. If we cannot see things directly, we cannot create any meaning.

I encourage you to see the world in terms of the terms we apply it to. You cannot speak about the world in terms of concepts, or about the human mind. If you speak about the world in terms of concepts, by using metaphors, or by using metaphor-based verbs, then your words are not just metaphors – they are words we use to communicate with each other.

In these and many other topics I haven't been able to bring up a clear way of understanding anything else in relation to language, but it's my hope that you will come to understand, and to learn more about language and the language world. If you have any questions or feedback for me, please feel free to leave a comment below – or leave a comment below if you have a topic I haven't covered or is not relevant enough of a topic for you to write to.
