Lore EA experience
late 14th century, "observation as the source of knowledge; actual observation; an event which has affected one"
from Latin experientia "a trial, proof, experiment; knowledge gained by repeated trials"
A pure, unadulterated word
"Remember, experience is a knowing gained by observation or by trials. In evolving, it enhances or lessens presence. Either way, it is movement within the stream of life. However, if experience solidifies, it no longer evolves within the stream. Instead, it fortifies, becoming rigid."
"Originals"
“I learned this, at least, by my experiment: that if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours.”
"Walden: Or, Life in the Woods"
