Chasing shadows.

Arun - We are objects trying to seek the Subject, that's the joke! It's like a shadow trying to catch it's substance.
Me - The context of their usage and the perspective in/from which the context is experienced, give words many shades of meaning. Words articulate a subjective perception of experience, centred on X, Y or Zee knowledge domain. The choice of words to share perception draw from universal vocabulary. Knowing what is meant though, varys as per individual apperception. Hennce syntax issues leading to gaps in understanding.
Makes one wonder about universal truths. Are there any, understood as expressed, given the contextual ambiguity of word meanings!

Me - We are objects trying to seek the Subject. Its the Subject object that casts shadows, based on it's disposition. Its the subject that chases shadows presuming substance.
