Words - not strong enough to communicate?

I am very bad in expressing my thoughts and feelings using words. And it all starts to go down wrong way starting from things coming out of very mouth - sort of like this: I know what I am thinking and feel it too, so I start talking to communicate those thoughts or opinions with others, often after not finding the "exact" words for my feelings or thoughts I end up using the words available out there, so there - this is the first stage of my thoughts getting modified. Then the person/people listening to me absorb what I said and start processing in them - my thoughts go through yet another phase of modification right there and this time I cant even tell how they are getting processed in somebody's head. The result being often time we are misunderstood.

Someday we will be able to upload our whole thoughts directly from our brain to others' or upload them on the web and we will be able to download them into our brain as they are. This just might eliminate a lot of misunderstanding, misleading which cause confusion, unhappiness, broken hearts etc.

"Words" is merely a way to make our thoughts audible which lacks the very much needed emotions that actually provoked those very thoughts in the first place- one has to be able to "feel" those emotions to understand the actual meaning of those thoughts.
