information deprivation

Hiding or depriving individuals or groups of people of facts to keep them ignorant and powerless. Individuals and organizations do that to protect themselves, to monopolize power, or to more easily take advantage of others.
I think it's safe to say that at some point and to varying degrees everybody practices information deprivation against those they interact with in order to trick them.

tangibleize

The thought, "The body is a physical manifestation of the soul", can also be expressed as "The body tangibleizes the soul".

Examples of things which "tangibleize" an invisible thing—such as a thought—are words, drawings, photographs, images, and sculptures or 3-D models because those things have transformed a thought or feeling into a visible or tangible representation of them.

And though spoken words manifest thoughts, no one can see a spoken word. To make a word visible, it must be written or typed. Then it can be moved around in a text. Though it is not possible to touch or hold written word per se, they can be said to be tangible because when written, they can be sent in a letter or email, or when printed on a paper or in a book, carried.

U-HI

There are many different types of "human interactions".

Exemplary (E-HI); pleasant, positive, or pleasurable (P-HI); productive (PROD-HI), professional (PRO-HI), unprofessional (UNPRO-HI), unproductive (UNPROD-HI), counterproductive (CP-HI), unpleasant (U-HI); painful (PA-HI); regrettable (R-HI), horrendous (H-HI), ugly (UG-HI), nice (N-HI), not nice (NN-HI), laughable (L-HI), funny (F-HI), ridiculous (RI-HI), retarded (RE-HI), sexual (S-HI), asexual (AS-HI), etc. The list is endless, and a website may sprout listing all the different types of human interactions and their acronyms or (as I believe it is best to call them) "acronames".

By looking back and analyzing not only an interaction, but also what "really" happened and how each participant behaved and or reacted to other's behaviors, it is possible to comprehend interactions and behaviors better, learn from them, remember them, and give them a name or label—such as EHI.

Labeling interactions can help reveal similarities and make it easier to categorize and group them to further increase comprehension and knowledge.

truth and reality war

The inherently unresolvable conflict between the things individuals believe.
Because each individual comes to believe the things he or she believes as a result of his or her experiences, different individuals will always have certain beliefs which are different or even opposite the beliefs others have, and at different times will in some way need to fight in what is the "truth and reality war."

Beliefs are thoughts linked to an emotion.

"Live and let live."
