A neologism is a word or phrase that we make up when we want to share a feeling or idea that we experience for the first time. The desire to share the new perception with others creates the neologism by using our knowledge to provide a description of the new insight. Without this desire to share there would be no description, and no neologism. Love invents what is pleasing to it. Every neologism is the product of a particular love. There are an endless variety of loves and sub-loves, which are called affections. The expression "being affectionate" refers to an affection of love for someone.For instance, a husband's love for his wife invents a new idea in his mind about how to express this love so that it may become visible to the wife in the actions of the husband, such as inventing a surprise for her, or inventing a new term of affection for her, or a new tone or way of saying it, or a new way of touching or squeezing, and so on. These are behavioral neologisms and are the products of love by which it is satisfied, and lives.No two things can ever be the same because all created things must reflect God's infinity, and consequently every single thing that exists is created to be unique, whether it is a physical thing like a pebble, river, or flower, or whether it is a mental thing like a thought, emotion, or sensation. Everything you think, feel, do, or say all day long is unique! If things were not absolutely unique the created universe would not truthfully represent the creativeness of God, in whom infinite distinct and unique things are unified into a one. This means that whatever happens to one thing small or large has an effect on all other things in the universe.All creations by God and all constructions by people are therefore existential neologisms. This book argues that every utterance and expression that a human being produces is unique and is therefore a neologism or "neo" for short. Your "neochart" is a record of the unique things that you feel, think, and say, making an index of your autobiographical record as a human being. Your neochart is a representation of your intimate relationship to God since every neo that we produce is actually an offshoot of the Divine Neo that God produces or creates in the mind of an individual. Your neochart is an index of your autobiographical record as a human being. It is a representation of your intimate relationship to God.Neologisms are loves in cognitive form that create the word, phrase, or sentence.If you want to know the quality of a person's love, look at the neologisms he or she produces. The meaning of each neologism is a spiritual map of where the love is that produced it, and is thus present within that meaning. Every meaning contains a love. The meaning and the love become one, like husband and wife become one in the conjugial couples of our heavenly society. The marriage between our love and its meaning engenders the coming into existence of a neologism. The parents of the neologism are the love and its meaning. In a pointed sense neos are zones of community ignorance. No one knows a neo prior to its construction by just one person. The diffusion of neos to others is the basis of community existence. People obtain their ideas and ideals from the neos of others. This is the process of cultural enrichment. Neo production of a group or society is an index of its inventiveness, adaptability, and survivability. Teaching children about all the neos they produce every day helps them to discover that they possess a more interior level of their mind that makes their thinking creative and novel. Thinking is not just happening at one level. Knowing this as they grow older helps them to be more receptive to non-material ideas that come through their higher rational mind, such as God, eternity, afterlife, goodness, truth, love, marriage, morality, patriotism, and selfishness.
