words are always gonna fall short of perfectly describing reality. they can be useful for thinking and for communicating those thoughts, but the more your thoughts fit neatly into words, the less accurate they probably really are. in tao there's the saying "the way that can be named (put into words) is not the (true) way."

parenthesis because I've seen different translations of the phrase and I'm trying to represent it as fully as I can.
