When I am thinking I might imagine what a person looks like and what they themselves might think. I might imagine what they might do in a situation and what their life has been like. I might wonder where they will go in the decades to come and what kind of friend they might make. This is but guess and wonderment and I am fine, happy and humble accepting this truth.

Each person, lifeform and object in the universe is complex and their is always more to learn. We cannot snap a finger and quickly define an entity with a simple restrictive definition. We'd be missing out on the much more complex truth. Is 'A' the way it is or is 'A' just a representation?
