The Great Experiment
Adela Howsare-Palacios
In Spanish, the translation of “I have experienced” is
He experimentado.
Experimentado also means, experimented.
Most linguists would argue that this is a coincidence. A mere homonym that occurred by chance.
But I think it happened on purpose,
Because what is every experience if not an experiment? What is every dream if not a hypothesis?
What is every influence if not a variable?
And what is every error but a challenge,
An unexpected reaction
That lets us know we must reevaluate
And try again?
