Resurging
My regular catch-up with a buddy shifted into unexpected gears – from “pre-surgery” to “resurgence.”
“I’m not a recovering man,” I said, “I’m a resurging man!”
Popping words around switches on new light bulb moments. 💡
Recovery.. meh… passive. Resurgence? That’s active. Purposeful. Uplifting.
Chalmers Brothers in his book “Language and the Pursuit of Happiness” says,
“Language is generative… not just descriptive.”
— a foundational concept: language is not a mirror but a tool of creation, especially in the forms of requests, promises, and declarations.
