The Disassociation of Words
I'm currently aspiring to be an academic researcher and realised just how many essays, coursework, tasks, modules and research I have accumulated at this point in my life (and have yet to do a PHD!) For the past 10 years, I have been surrounded by words and have slowly become numb to them, not really appreciating the simple words in an effort to replace them with a rather obnoxious 'academically approved' jargon. I guess I am at this point in my life where I am trying to find the beauty in what makes writing a beautiful emulation of the human spirit rather than be dogged down by the amount of words needed as a means to an end.
