The early 17th century Latin vocabulary had a word…conari’…which means to try. The men of Shawshank took that up a notch and exercised their full conation which means to exercise one’s mental faculty or will to perform an action. Conation is a synonym to volition which is the word Cheers threw out to the group last week. Shawshank men exercise their bodies, and expand their vocabulary, ITG on a weekly basis. Each man pushed themselves and glistened with the sweet sweat of betterment (stolen form Coon Dog).
