The way your mother rolls her eyes at you, your sudden decision to stop eating red meat, the immediate unexplainable sadness you felt when you saw your fathers shirt draped over the back of a chair. You can write it all down, you can put it in your book of facts, but the truth is no one can ever really understand the tangle of experiences and passions that makes you who you are. Its a secret collection, a private language, a pebble in your pocket that you play with when youre anxious, hard as geometry, smooth as soap.
