What is Your Word?

In Eat, Pray, Love, Elizabeth Gilbert writes that her friend Luca Spaghetti claims:

Every person and city has a word.

Like for example, Rome is "sex"; the Vatican, "power"
New York, "achieve"; Stockholm is "conform" and Naples is "fight"

So what's my word?

"Laughter" does not feel right.
"Light" is contrived.
My friend Aileen jokingly asks if it's "complicated."

"Kaleidoscope" or "Paradox"
are almost there but not quite.

Perhaps two words will do the trick.

Passion&Delight

Yes, so it is.

What is your word?
