"The term "explain" itself implies a common reality, doesn't it?"
Jody — (archived)

It explains to me I don't understand what YOU mean...explain...extrapolate...define...break down...clear up...

Words help create a commonality so that we may communicate differences.

I was absolutely off the mark to use *what does red mean to you*...?

A more appropriate question would be "What does family mean to you?"

What I speak of is an intrinsic truth. Emotional Intelligence. When the rubber meets the road...it is what rules everything.

Why else would we get our shorts in a bunch trying to get others to see things from our point of view?

I believe our circle of friends includes thinking similarly to ourselves...and why some family members are black sheep...they don't play *by the rules*...[that someone else is trying to enforce.]
Also I think birth order dynamics plays into this. Someone once said that we all grow up in different families...Ask my 3 brothers what it was like growing up in my family...and we will all define it differently .
