sometimes words are enough

So I have this hobby of collecting words, its definition, its application. I don't exactly know why, but I find them interesting. That the smallest of things can be defined in a number of letters and sometimes, people don't notice them. We don't give them enough credit although they take part in explaining objects, describing situations/feelings, etc. 

I have been stuck on this one word for ages and for some reason I can't explain why. It just... Gets me. I understand more each time I read it. It symbolises. It gives meaning. That even the smallest of actions are that meaningful. The things we don't do on purpose, like making eye-contact with a stranger on the street. Who knows what that outcomes to? The gestures we do to understand another person's feelings, the things we think does not have meaning, who knows that there's a word, a feeling to explain it with?          

It just...... Blows your mind. Like, who would have thought? I certainly wouldn't if I didn't come across it. I love this word. It just explains all the unexplainable. In four letters. Imagine. In four letters. I mean, how are words even capable of this? That's what makes them special. Xeno. As simple as that, xeno. It's not even in the dictionary!
