It is most difficult, if not impossible, to describe our or others' ongoing naive experience without in the process destroying the experience itself.  Indeed, we are always three levels removed from the ongoing experience itself when we study it.  That is, when we describe this experience to ourselves we are already once removed from it; when we subsequently try to analyze this experience into its components we are twice removed.  And finally, when we begin to conceptualize and generalize meaningfully from the particular experience we are thrice removed from it.
