Perception

        What does even perception mean ? "the ability to see, hear, or become aware of something through the senses.".   It  also means an ability to read someone's mental impression! We all would like to think we are highly perceptive people.We know someone as we have boxed them in these boxes.We now become comfortable and we even pat ourselves on the back when they operate as we perceived. We assume that the external world maps perfectly onto our internal view of it—an expectation that is reinforced by daily experience.We are little upset if they don't operate as per our perception. Even zero expectation theory fails in these scenarios.As we just think over and over again that how could i have not perceived this!
      Perception is quite different from preconceived notion, we form perception based on few interactions.Its just that we feel its safer to precept someone and be safe emotionally as we can just shrug it off as "i thought so". Now the fun part comes when person behaves in strange manner out of his/her box.Life's complicated, be it professional or personal , we can't box people and think that now we can lead a simple life.Unless we live as a hermit, its never simple.But, shrugging off every problem as a joke is also not a solution.Perceptions show be allowed to change over time else we risk a boring life.
          Clueless as what my article means now!!I just imagine worst case scenarios and imagine solutions(lol..i think its the side effect of being a wannabe writer).Anyways, i guess now my blog is just a random place for my random musings.Nobody ever reads it (saving paper on a dairy ;) ).I think being open minded and emphatic person is key to a simple life.Also, communicating in a direct way (not rude!!)is the bestest way to live a less  complicated life!
