I can't recall when exactly it happened,
but I learned,
at some time during the years that I have lived,
that words are very important,
at some time during the years that I have lived,
that words are very important,
and should be chosen carefully
when used.
When possible.
Because "fuck", "fuck" and "fuck" can sound similar
but be intended so differently,
it is necessary to discern between "I am frustrated", "I am angry" and "I am exasperated".
After all, they don't really sound the same,
if you listen closely.
I imagine that an increase in information,
and probably more so,
greater precision,
are necessary
if one's wish is to align their speech more closely with the complexity
of themselves as an organism.
And while I doubt that this is true of language only,
I find there to be something remarkably satisfying
when
the hard work
necessary to achieve sparsity
produces something elegant.
