words

Every time you put something into words you lose some of its quality. The reason for that is that words limit you, there's only a certain number of words to describe specific things leaving little room for variation. Take happiness for example, what words could possibly describe that? You could say that happiness is feeling good but then what is feeling good, we then go into an endless cycle of definitions until the other person gets a basic understanding but in the back of your head you know that they will never fully understand.
