We get that raising children is beautifully chaotic and wonderfully frustrating. We get the sense of helplessness that comes when it seems like everyone thinks they know your child better than you. We get that there are times you feel alone. We get that no one und

Syzygy to Wanderlust, a 2016 wish.
The Most Beautiful Word(s)
Part 3
It could be that the most beautiful word in the English language is actually a cluster of words. We think of ‘epiphany’ which is a gossamer uplook on a crystal, December morning; an eternal instant. Juxtapose this with ‘syzygy’ which is “the nearly straight-line configuration of three celestial bodies (as the sun, moon, and earth during a solar or lunar eclipse) in a gravitational system” Merriam-Webster) or expressed otherwise: Astronomy A conjunction or opposition, especially of the moon with the sun: ‘the planets were aligned in syzygy’ (Oxford dictionary). ‘Epiphany’, ‘wanderlust’, ‘syzygy’, ‘caramel’ do make a most unlikely quartet.
It’s time to temporarily ignore definitions and just find your own ‘most beautiful words’. Perhaps in 2016 you will also begin another journey of discovery, self-discovery, other discoveries starting with your own “most beautiful word(s).

The Most Beautiful Word(s)
Part 2
“Dépaysement” came years later. It carries that meaning of being somewhat lost, somewhat disoriented in a strange country and culture. It’s in the beauty of the word rather than any stirring of feeling. Let’s forget it’s a French word. There is a power of beauty in words!
What is the most ‘beautiful’ word in the English language? Is it “wanderlust” or “caramel” or “dépaysement”? “Caramel” it is; nothing on the World Wide Web comes close. It has a power of sound you can almost caress; a rich swirl of colour; a movement of associations.
