How know when you know?

When is knowledge knowledge — as opposed to belief, point of view, or opinion?

Well, to say of two words they are identical is nonsense and to say of one word it is identical with itself is to say nothing.
And word-users that mistake one word for another means they don’t know the first thing about either.

Is knowledge ever objective?

Many word-users believe — as opposed to know — knowledge is objective when it’s about truth. But truth doesn’t exist. Everything word-users hear is an opinion, not a fact, and everything word-users see is a perspective, not the truth.

The only source of knowledge is experience

“The only source of knowledge is experience” used to say Albert Einstein better than I ever could.
He knew because both knowledge and experience exist only now, in the precious present.

See how k-now-ledge is now?

Ditto for experience.

The only way to experience anything within you and without you is by or through any or all of your six senses — feel, see, hear, smell, touch, and taste.
None of your senses are active at any time except now.
It follows the only time you’ll ever be able to experience anything is now.
Or as the saying goes, it’s now or never.

  • When you remember — for example you were breathing yesterday — you re-member it now.
  • You’re breathing now? Then you know it beyond the shadow of a doubt.
  • When you imagine you’ll be breathing tomorrow, you imagine it now.

Takeaway

The only time ever is now.

The past is past.

Later you’ll be dead with the difference to now is that you won’t have the words to describe it anymore.
For you will have later returned to how you  began — wordless.
