While there is such a thing as truth, and we aim to uncover it, getting at the truth is a process. It is hard. It takes time. We almost never immediately know it, and we can’t assume we ever know it in full. If we’re honest, we’ll admit that we often see the world through a keyhole. With work and skill, we can open the door a bit and see more. With more work and more skill, and perhaps a lot of luck, we can swing the door wide open and see what appears to be the whole picture.
Given that we are not all-knowing, we have the obligation of always listening, looking and learning — consumed by what remains to be discovered
