Types of Experience
The word "experience" may refer, somewhat ambiguously, both to mentally unprocessed immediately perceived events as well as to the purported wisdom gained in subsequent reflection on those events or interpretation of them.
Some wisdom-experience accumulates over a period of time, though one can also experience (and gain general wisdom-experience from) a single specific momentary event.
One may also differentiate between (for example) physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, vicarious and virtual experience(s).

“The wider the range of possibilities we offer children, the more intense will be their motivations and the richer their experiences.

—Loris Malaguzzi (1920–1994)
“Science is intimately integrated with the whole social structure and cultural tradition.

—Talcott Parsons (1902–1979)
“Doesn’t all experience crumble in the end to mere literary material?”
