phenomena qua noumenon

Phenomena
the thing that appears to us (That which we have the ability to create a distinction, judgement for.)

qua
as; as being; in the character or capacity of:

noumenon
in the philosophical system of Immanuel Kant, a “thing-in-itself”; (That which we have the no distinction, judgement for.)

That which is known continuing to be challenged by what is unknown.

In short; the process of living in recognition that the present (what we know about the world we live in) is always on the edge of leading us into the future (that which we have no real knowlegdge of).
