I found it interesting that our knowledge was described as only a "dim text," that "brightens as we express it." I agree with this statement, and think of our knowledge as a seed. This seed is continuously fed by more and more texts and knowledge, causing us to bloom into very different forms of expression. We then in turn take these types of expressions and organize them into new texts or new or forms of expression. Then someone else would take those thoughts and ponder upon them and write and express their own means into more texts. The process would go on and on and on in a circular-type pattern.

Expression is a beautiful thing, whether it is in dance, prose, poetry or in art. It is interesting because one could derive all of these different forms of expression from one text, and although the art forms are very different, they can still provoke the similar responses to the original text.
