Subject: Are you all pondering what I am pondering?

“Oh, it’s a little bit of everything, it’s the mountains, it’s the fog, it’s the news at six o’clock, it’s the death of my first dog, it’s the angels up above me, it’s the song that they don’t sing, It’s a little bit of everything.”
- Dawes, A little bit of everything

But do you mean to say that without a word we do not have the feeling? A rose can be called anything, but it still smells sweet. That is what I believe Shakespeare was trying to say. While the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis says that, basically, thought is controlled by language, I think that we can go beyond this and say that while we may not be able to put a label on something, we still feel strongly towards it.

Some things are best unknown, and some things are best left to the imagination. Even more things are just so unimportant that we really should not care.
