How the word 'you' helps us deal with negative experiences
Written by Tim Newman
Published: Today
 
Recent findings, published in the journal Science, provide new insight into the way a simple word - "you" - can help us understand negative experiences and extract meaning from them.
 
A new study finds extra meaning in the simplest of words.

The word "you" is one of the most commonly used in the English language. Its primary use is to address a specific person - for instance, "how are you?" - but it also has a broader meaning.

Hey: you got a problem with that?
"The most terrifying force of death, comes from the hands of Men who wanted to be left Alone. They try, so very hard, to mind their own business and provide for themselves and those they love. They resist every impulse to fight back, knowing the forced and permanent change of life that will come from it. They know, that the moment they fight back, their lives as they have lived them, are over. -Alexander Solzhenitsyn
