One of the fundamental roots of the social/communal nature of person

Knowing that one knows creates a dynamic of movement to an other. The concept of person that the subject is to the consciousness of the subject in self-consideration/self-knowing moves to have a knowledge that matches who and what the subject is. The subject is a self-knowing being, so the subject seeks a knowledge taht matches what it is; the knower strives to for a concept of himself that is self-knowing; an other, a subject. This is apparently one of the fundamental roots of the social/communal nature of person. In self knowledge the knower seeks a knowing that is alive,as the knower is alive. It also bears a resemblance to the processional quality of being that is in the Father, and that is realized in the Son.
