  • Philotimo - A Word without Borders
    There is no word in the english language for the random moments that give birth to eternal questions..
    No word for the deep awareness and desire to do good, and demand so from others.
    There is no word in the english language that blends the sense of individual purpose with the certainty that life is held in common.
    There is no word for doing your work with pride while you expect no reward, or when you’ll always do more than is expected of you, when recognised just once for what you did.
    No word for standing up to fear and still brave the day with humbleness that outlasts all hardship.
    No word for what makes you stand up and fight when you could have just gone gently into the night.
    There is no word in the english language to describe love of honor or the honor of love, and the tragic void of one without the other.
    There is no word that measures friendship in a stranger, or for the comfort that fills the empty moments you hold with people you trust.
    There’s no word to say you’re sorry that matters more than making up for it.
    No word to measure virtue, against its own reward.
    No word for that space between your freedom and mine, neither for the power of duty to give one’s up for the sake of another’s, none too for the half-heard cry of liberty growing in the stillness between two waves of the sea.
    There is no word to describe the art of unwrapping the gift of life in the present.
    No word for the need to live in a better word!

    No Greek heritage, blood or ancestry. But my heart, my heart is Greek.

      Every human as roots from Hellas as Hellas roots cover the world. There are no borders in today’s world. Stop hate, unite cultures.

      In culture, mind and philosophy, we Westerners are all Greek. The ancient Greeks are the forefathers of all Europeans. Read ‘The Greek Way’ by Edith Hamilton. We forget Greek Wisdom at our own peril as Athens learned after killing Socrates. Then Athens fell and fell hard. America is next lest she wake up..

    probably from two words- filos+ themis . like what is right and just. can be described in Tagalog as Pili( select) + Tama( correct).

      That is a very interesting observation thank you Diwani! Is this an actual word in Tagalog or have you just thought it up? Do you have a similar word that somehow translates philotimo?

      @@SSSS-qw3mkactually stems from the word fileo (φιλέω) which means "to love" so translates to "love of honor" :)

      There’s no mystery about the etymological meaning of Philotimo. It means ‘Love of’ (Philos) + ‘Homor/What is Just’’ (Timi/o). It’s Greek, one of the most ancient of all recorded languages..
