linguistic failings

Could it be that language — as we know it — is deeply subjective, and only truly meaningful within its context?

Could it be evolving far more slowly than the torrent of information we now exchange?

What if our ability to convey meaning is lagging behind our ability to generate data?

What about those things that “cannot be put into words”?

How much are we missing?

What about the mystical? The immaterial?

So many realities remain unseen.

So many truths remain untold.

So many identities remain misunderstood.

So many ideas unexplored.

So much potential untapped.

So much novelty left in the dark.

Are we having a huge collective miscommunication?
