My New Favorite Word
I have found the word.
The word that best describes what I do here on a daily basis.
The word that may very well be a theme for my life.
The word that I come by genetically, yes Mom this could be your word too( and Dad maybe even a word that would describe you) yes, it is in my DNA this word.
Do you want to know what that word is?
Have I peeked your interest?
Are you just bubbling over with curiosity?
Would you pay a million dollars to know what it is?
I should make this into a guessing game and give out prizes for the winner... but I can only play one blog game a month or I might go broke!
Ok here it is defined by good ole Wikiepdia.
Hyperbole
Hyperbole-It may be used to evoke strong feelings or to create a strong impression, but is not meant to be taken literally.
Hyperboles are exaggerations to create emphasis or effect. As a literary device, hyperbole is often used in poetry, and is frequently encountered in casual speech. An example of hyperbole is: "The bag weighed a ton."[2] Hyperbole helps to make the point that the bag was very heavy, although it is not probable that it would actually weigh a ton.
And no blog would be complete on here without an example.
My life is forever changed because of this word.
I have found a slot.
I have found a home.
**Micheal W. Smith song played here....those that know this song sing along in the comment section.
"I was looking for a reason,
roaming through the night to find
my place in this world,
my place in this world"
My place in this world, It's name is Hyperbole!
