When we speak, it's just symbols and sounds. It's how we communicate. But how do we convey the intangible? How do these words trigger a response, how is it that we're able to do this? We have words to represent emotions, but how do we understand? How does someone understand what another is saying? They might nod, but how do you know if they truly understand? Words are inert, lifeless. They're just sounds, things used to describe what our minds perceive, to comprehend and discuss the reality surrounding us.

So many of our experiences are intangible, unexplainable. Yet we have words for these abstract things; like spirituality, emotion, religion, sentiments. So much of what we perceive cannot be expressed, yet we're able to do so and when we communicate with one another, we feel that we have that ability, because we do. We're able to connect through these symbols, and we understand.

I think that's what we're always seeking, that spiritual communion of sorts. At least, I know I am. When I speak, I'm not talking at someone. I'm connecting on a level so inherently complex with it's gestures, expressions, inflections that I don't think I'll ever be able to fully comprehend it. Yet, it's so simple at the same time. We just speak. Just, noises. All this knowledge through words. It holds such power, language holds so much power. Everything I write or say has meaning, even if I don't intend it to, all of our words hold meaning... and that astounds me.

Hi Alisha, many thanks favouring my "Burst1" abstract.
It was a lucky "mono" print, repeated about 4 or 5 times.
The original has gold paint in it and is shiny, even better...
