Words Are Inadequate

"Installed the (kitchen) fan," 

she wrote on her journal page.

Then she realized the words didn't begin to capture

the experience--

the dismantling of the old;

the unpacking of the new;

spreading out the instructions

ready for reading;

the tools;

the ladder;

the patient assembler;

the helpful hands of elderly father;

the assembly of parts;

connecting of wires;

steps to the breaker box in the garage;

the return to flip on the switch...

And lights!

And the cool breeze of the fan! 

Yes.

Words ARE inadequate to express or explain much of ANYthing,

she concluded.
