WORDS CAN BE TOOLS OR TRAPS

Searching for words with which to convey one’s comprehension is very different from using words to investigate comprehension. In the first we model the universe. In the second language models our perception of it. Language can be a tool to expand truth or a prison to obscure it. Analogy and experience are discounts on communication, but they are impediments to comprehension of the universe: truth. So there is a great difference between those of us who live in verbally constructed universe, and use words to describe it, and those of us who live in the the visual universe and use words to describe it.
