In many ways, how we communicate words to each other matter. Especially the words we use to describe periods of history, or moments in time. Take "The Enlightment" or "The Renaissance" - these words are now loaded with history itself (get it) and that means we can't use it collectively to describe another period. They start to form an identity on its own that we can't unsubscribe to mimetically

There is something implicit in this: in many ways - we need new words to describe the times that are yet to come

We need new phrases, new feelings, to describe the coming ages, because new ages are going to require new ways to describe the times that are yet to happen (incredible, I imagine).

Absolutely. Words have far more power than people realize. As a patent agent, a misused word in a patent claim can be the difference of many millions of dollars, or nothing. 

In everyday conversation, the words we use have power over our perception of ourselves and others. It’s amazing how people who use more negative words than positive can result in more depression/anxiety over time. 

I think you’re right that we need to be aware of how our description of the now and the past will impact the future. Words are loaded with so much meaning, we should be leveraging that power to building a better future, establishing the myths before they happen
