In this world we know very little, however we have the perception that we know everything. We spend all this time worrying about ours things, relationships, aesthetics and frankly our own opinions. If people only realized that an opinion is nothing but a group of your personal perceptions about any one said thing. For instance, “That couch is beautiful,” is only a perception of the object; It is not soft or hard, beautiful nor ugly, the couch is simply a couch. Perception is everything in this world, in a way it’s humanity’s  greatest downfall.

    I totally agree with you! If people stop insisting that their perceptions are the only real perception, much strife could be averted. You might like an article I wrote on perception! Here’s the link: http://thewritofcotton.wordpress.com/2011/06/16/it-started-with-a-comment/
