In the beginning, there was probably no word. More likely, it was a sound, or a tiny movement. Perhaps, it was no more than the invisible blink of a formless divine eyelash. Perhaps, it was a rogue electron. Perhaps, the 'beginning' as we know it, was the moment when we decided to be us - speaking animals with words as their primary currency.
And perhaps that is why we tip-toe around words.
