Perceptions

Have you ever wondered what perceptions are all about?
Is it about the one who is perceiving? Or is it about the one who is being percieved?
Recently I realised that perceptions are about what you want to see, not necessarily what really is. Then again, who decides what really is, is real? :)
Like there was this friend of mine from class who thought I am never quiet and never reflect.. :D
Can that be farther from reality, now? People who know me can sure vouch for it being exactly the opposite.. especially the latter part.. :P
But well, the point being that's what he thought..

There was this other exercise where each one was asked to identify some qualities in a person which stood out.. And guess what, people actually thought this aimless and goalless person is ambitious!!!! :D
Oh man! cudnt help laughing... really... :))

Perceptions are what I called it, now... :)

There is a saying,"if you dont percieve, everything would appear to be infinite".
It's a perception driven world where in we percieve and then weave an image around it. Sometimes its right and sometimes its wrong whihc leaves you hurt. But in the end it all started from a single thing "perception."
