I had been recently talking about the inability of languages to express our innermost feelings. Haven’t you felt it? Emotions are sometimes so intense that there is no way to express them. Of course, there arises a question - “why should we express them?”.
Well, sometimes we do feel to. And in such occasions, languages hinder and we fail. Perhaps the only way is to express them with facial expressions, gestures.
And sometimes we don’t need to express – as we say in Telugu, "Vinnadi tiyyadaithe, vinipinchanidi inkaa teepi..."
“What you heard is sweet, what you haven’t is even sweeter”. So, sometimes not expressing is the better way.
