Okay, you may be wondering why is my post title a little bit irrelevant and ridiculous. When I mentioned about finding the perfect one, I meant finding the perfect word - and not literally finding the "perfect one" like in those fairy tales.
Long story short, I'm just really writing about moods. Let me take two words in comparison, happy and ecstatic. Both words certainly do possess the same definition. For instance, the girl is extremely happy as she passed her results with flying colors or the girl is extremely ecstatic as she passed her results with flying colors?
No doubt the second sentence implied a more significant note. You don't have to be "bombastic" with every single word of yours but the right word at the right place can easily set a different mood to your readers.
Previous English lessons made me realized that my vocabulary is so limited and there are many words to explore in the Thesaurus. From today onward, I vow to utilize the Thesaurus to an attainable level of capacity and enhance my writings. Yes - I will find the perfect one.
I like your insight on mood. Bravo!
