Definition
Definition is crucial.
Without it, all activity under the sun crumbles. Words become meaningless, work becomes pointless, and relationships become flat.
Without definition, there can be no communication. We could not comprehend what is spoken or written. Without definition, there is no order. If jobs, tasks, and positions are not defined, institutions fall apart. Without definition, there is ambiguity in relationships. There would be no clarity between professional and personal, romance and friendship, acquaintance and comrade.
Definition is the context for communication, order, and community. It is the antithesis of chaos.
It is scary to me that society champions relativism the way it does. We accept phrases like truth is relative, which is really the same thing as saying there is no definition. And if there is no definition, there is no context, only a vacuum.
Chaos will inevitably follow.
