SOAPBOX: Perceptions

"The Truth of Perception; The Perception of Truth"
We are not so much defined by our DNA or our Social Class as we are by the perception of our experiences, It is not the experience that we learn, but rather the perception of the experience no matter what truth that is revealed by the experience. Perception is based on many factors; both external, like viewing conditions, distance, obstacles; and internal, like emotional states, psychological factors, and direction of motivation during the time span reflective of the original experience. So it is that 2 people can see and share the exact same event or experience and remember, and/or be affected by shared experiences in different ways quite dramatically opposed to each other in concept.
