How many times have words not been enough? How many complex feelings don't have a corresponding noun that properly describes them?

To his surprise he found that the ancient rules of language were not quite as restrictive as he had long envisioned them to be. With so many emotions and states of mind missing modern descriptors and definitions, Massini stumbled across a simple but artistry-altering idea. Instead of compromising honest expression through perfunctory verbiage, he decided language was, if anything, a flowing palette of colors he could use to paint all things. ![]() English | ASIN: B08TYPYXL5 | 2021 | 6 hours and 49 minutes |MP3|M4B | 187 MB In a world that seems so troubled, how do we hold on to hope?
