WORD G-MEN

Due mostly to the fact that I got tumblr and I haven't really thought of much to write about in a while, it has been a long time between posts. However, often, there are little occurrences in my day, that make me want to come back to this little haven of mine and just have a rant to completely no one. Not a soul, which is perfectly okay for me. Today I had one of these little occurrences.

I find the power of words, of language, the most extraordinary thing in all of the world. Its hard to describe, or explain. But, I think that we do not glorify literature enough, at all. Think about it. We, as people of Australia, understand words of the English language, and again, we as adults, are learned in words, and therefore understand most words within our language, far more than that of an infant. Then, as apart of our location within this country, we understand localised jargon and colloquialisms, that many others may not understand. It's that individually acquired knowledge and understanding of words, that truly encapsulates me, I find it brilliant.

It's also interesting how mere words can change a mood. I love the ability of sometimes single words to change how I feel.

Today, a mere sentence made my day.
That has got to say something.
