Do We Lose Meaning When Everything Needs a Label? | Sindy
Labels help us make sense of the world. They simplify communication and give us shared reference points. But not everything fits neatly into a name.
In this short spoken-word reflection, Sindy explores whether meaning can be lost when every experience needs a label. When moments are still forming, naming them too quickly may flatten what they’re trying to express.
This isn’t about rejecting language. It’s about noticing where words clarify — and where they may limit.
SCRIPT:
We label almost everything now.
Feelings.
Experiences.
Parts of who we are.
Labels help us communicate.
They give us shortcuts for understanding.
But I wonder what happens
when every experience needs a name
before it feels real.
Some things are messy.
Transitional.
Still forming.
And when we rush to label them,
we might be freezing something
that was meant to stay fluid a little longer.
So sometimes I ask…
do labels help us understand meaning —
or do we lose something
when everything has to fit
into a word?
