a) Being implies "free" will of choice within "dom"-inance of balance...consenting to suggested "freedoms" puts one at liberty to others, while binding self to the suggested.

b) index aka IN (within) DICO (to say; call; tell) aka spoken into existence by others aka spell-craft. Meanwhile in nature....personal implies PER (by) SONOS (sound) aka perceivable sound; not suggested words.

• Saying suggested information implies SOOTH'SAYER, noun - "a foreteller; a prognosticator; one who undertakes to foretell future events without inspiration". Guess what perceivable implies? Inspiration.

• CALL, verb (Heb. to hold or restrain)...consenting (recall) to suggested (call) implies restraining self, while permitting another to get hold of one.

• whatever another tells implies a tale; a story; a narrative; a transaction aka sharing particulars (suggested) within whole (perceivable), which tempts one to ignore whole (reality) for partial (fiction). Tale also implies TAT'TLE, verb - "idle talk; to prate; to use many words (suggested) with little meaning (perceivable)".

Edit: TEX (tax) AS (ass)....doesn't sound so friendly (tejas/friend).
