the difference between these verbs

Hi,

I came across these verbs on my assignment. I don't know the differences between them. Here is the sentence:"The journal entry should be brief in description and move into reflection: Interpreting, deliberating, considering, wondering, and reviewing."

I check my dictionary and deliberating, considering and wondering are similar. Is this similar to legal terms where sometimes words can be different in meanings? I am interested in law school but how I can understand the differences in words? Any particular words that people use interchangeably in our daily lives but they are used differently in legal settings?

Thanks

A journal, or diary, entry would express your reflections on life. You would try to interpret the things that happen to you. You would deliberate on them - what do they mean to you?

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. So, what is the differences between interpreting and deliberating? Don't they mean that the same which means to find out what the meanings are?
