To Discern

 

It is tricky to define anything, and the philosophers of linguistics, logic, analysis corroborate this with their incessant and accurate knack for undermining any new argument that seeks to be objectively clear and comprehensive in nailing down what people discern, how they do it, and how they communicate their conclusions with the community.

 

All we can hope to achieve is to discern ourselves, our neighbors and events, objects and activities internally as well as externally out there in the world, as they are, and then apply language to correspond as near as possible to what we are thinking, the conscious conclusions about what we have discerned, learned and generalized.
