We are consistently stuck in our search for meaning because of the recursive nature of life. Self similarity means things are almost the same but not exact. This is the basis of diversity upon which natural selection works. A process which like an algorithm shapes and contours evolution.
Try to define a word and you have to use other words. Try to define a concept and you will have to break it into smaller units. Ultimately everything is the same but just organized differently. A different pattern within the same entity. God is just a shape we choose to see within the static and noise in the universe because we are children of this pattern seeking game.
This phenomenon can also be termed 'epistemic regress' for the sole fact that definitions require definitions. We cannot define x by means of a natural language because language is recursive and self referential. The alternative is to define x using a method that doesn't
rely upon a recursive process. T (time) is a major factor in recursion so much that if we do try to define x without recursion, then our definition of x will remain stagnant to the T that it was defined in. Recursion has allowed us to include the dimension of time in our definitions.
In trying to define x=love -- in order to describe x we need to take an excursion into other concepts which takes t time. the time required to find some satisfactory definition is reliant about n number of concepts we choose to refer to. We want to point to x -- how can we do this without pointing somewhere else?
