Connotative language is the emotion or feeling that come from a word, and Denotative language is the dictionary definition.
The dictionary gives the literal or denotative meaning of a word. However, many words (especially nouns, verbs, adjectives, and adverbs) also have an emotional meaning.
Depending on how a word is used it may have a positive, negative or neutral connotation.

things that many had failed to notice. Dove accepts what life can offer her and
she accepts it with an open-heart
