“ My humanity is bound up in yours, for we can only be human together.”
~ Desmond Tutu
What makes you tick? What frequency are you transmitting on? Do you have a unique wavelength?
To dive deeper into the metaphor: What is your operating system? If humans are the “hardware”, then might language be the “software”?
You might say that language is the source code for culture. There’s the code you were born into and raised with and then there are the various add-ons and modules and plug-ins that you add on your own by living your life experience.
