The purpose of language
"Language was invented for one reason, boys - to woo women - and, in that endeavor, laziness will not do." - John Keating
Indeed, words to elevate up to the highest peaks, to the gorgeous ladies that make much of youth. Language in its entirety serves only to communicate emotions and to find in that endeavour a opportunity and a privilege.
To flatter, to praise and exalt the object of one's fancies to the highest degree, that is the prerogative. One needs to display with the utmost eloquence and with the most dashing of styles a mastery of the gentlemanly and charming nature.
Of course that constitutes only part of the entirety of courtship. Words, as pivotal their purpose, merely initiates a much longer journey. Words for all their usefulness must be said, spoken and put into reality.
Someday, one would have to face the opportunity, the chance to express the words, emote them with the passion and feelings one harbours for the rose of one's eye.
As they say, romance is hardly rationale and barely logical. That is why the success anf failure can never be reduced to mere formulas. Whether it shall bear any fruit or result in any union, depends very much upon nothing but feelings and the connection of the soul. Pure unadultered longing that sings the tune of the other.
It's magical. And that is enough to sustain the rapturous expanse of emotions that it comprises of. Whether it be a endeavour in vain or a mutual undertsnading.
