"Describe It"

Contact lenses came to my mind. I've been wearing them for about 6 years and I can't do without them. Their technology has developed a lot since then,you can wear them for longer time without any irritation. Much better than wearing glasses,in my opinion😊 next: short-sightedness

in it's concrete meaning can be solved with e.g. contact lenses... in it's abstract meaning more difficult to cure 😉

bookworm

also know as nerd, an initial loner and outcast to jock elite...but behold, he shall one day rule the world.....isnt that right William?! 😃

Dominate

not to be confused with "waffle"........its a crunchy thin delight that adorns a well packed cone or a solemn blessing from a priest in the house of God. I f eaten right, you will reap the rewards but if not....you face crumb hell and the onslaught of annoying gum splinters.

Which bring me onto my next word........

Oral

You can give oral presentations in scientific meetings... or you can give oral feedback if you just heard a lousy presentation... then there are the freudian connotations to the word... but am I avoiding the obvious? 😃

I might have taken the word kiss next, but it's been described already. Instead I go for

touch

to get in close connection with an object or somebody in order to detect or please them (or yourself😊 by using your sensitive receptors in the skin. It's one of the most important senses for the blind. Next: kingdom

A common staple for bored husbands and wives, of which can sometimes be fruitful and sometimes be deadly...shotguns at the ready....but heartbreaking nonetheless.
The word is also a current state of things happening either in one's immediate environment or the world entire.

...thus my next word is:

War

Goes on between people or nations... come to think of it, goes on between people. Supposedly helps to solve problems, but hardly ever does. Supposedly is a thing that has a start and a finish, but hardly ever does. Supposedly we should be able to live without them, but...

How about peace?

A rare commodity indeed. Seldom comes to those who deserve it, and is always on the tip of the toungue...before someone chops it off.
An incompatible notion for our species since the begining of time.

...ergo my next word:

Evolution

A process that's been shaping us since the days of Darwin... hmmm or was it even before him? :P That's why we only have the tiniest tail bone (or whatever it's called) and why we can't smell much anymore - useless in our modern world. If you're an optimist, you believe it's all for the best. If you're a pessimist, you think it will eventually end up in total destruction. Inevitable, nonetheless.

Beliefs?

To not support sy anymore who trusted you,quite on the contrary, to do sg against them usually behind his/her back. Next: friend

Friend is one who will help u in crises.....his friendship is not depend on any interest........

lover

Can kill a marriage having a lover,or in case of a marriage malfunctions 😉 people often choose having a lover instead of getting divorced. In other cases it may help maintain it, i could say on a vegetative level. 😊 Next: priest

well I've missed a lot of interesting definitions! and quite I few that I may not have been so hedgy about describing 😉

A priest is a leader in the Catholic church, often protrayed in popular humour as taking an unholy interest in choirboys.

which brings me nicely to...

deviancy

Anyone's behaviour being different from the so-called social requirements and standards is supposed to be deviant. Like: robbery

aka "swish-bang-wallop-boom---and the occasional ping" a la Vin Diesel....oh so cool blockbuster of a holywood no brainer.
Its also the dark and censored areas of sexuality and moral deviance......a quick Google search for "britney" or shrot click to "Great Gifs" would yeald the answer.

....such manners of depravity bring us to:

Morality

Quite tough question,reminds me discussing it for hours at philosophy lessons at university(i cant remember much,anyway😊. But in my opinion its in close connection with humanity.Leading a life with making the less possible harm to others,having a firm personality and a healthy value judgement and respecting others as individuals. Simple to carry out,isn't it? 😉 next: gossip

ahh...gossip, No. VIII ( 8 ) in the 'Ten Commandments' - "THOU SHALT NOT BEAR FALSE WITNESS AGAINST THY NEIGHBOR."
A truly evil sin amongs many, but a delicacy for the tabloids and glossy magazines. A destroyer of many a career, and an occasional life or two.
Women enjoy it more, but men secretly take part whilst the victim(s) cower in fear of their fate.

...another human trait that eventually in most cases come to:

Judgement
