Does this make sense at all? In my head, it’s the most clear. When written, I feel like I’m not able to fully express what I’m thinking. When speaking, it’s like fucking Russian roulette and can be wonderfully put together and eloquent or stroke-like.

Is there any way to improve this or is it just the way my damn brain works?

    Human language is so limited compared to the vastness of the mind, especially when our mind got to conceptualize multifaceted aspects of the reality.

    For example: human language presumes time and place. What if the concept revolves around the nothingness and non-existence? If I were to say that “nothing is infinite, ever existed”, the grammar will need definite article “the” (“THE nothing is infinite, it ever existed”) except that it’s not a “thing”, it’s “no thing”, so it’d be paradoxical to refer to it as “it” or “the”. In my mind, it makes sense, it’s clear to me. But words cannot express it as clearly as my thoughts.

    So it’s can be possibly be a limitation of the whole human language mechanism (independent of which language).
