Perception is in the Eye of the Beholder

Perception is a very crazy thing. The way one person looks at an object depends on many variables. The way different people see different things is a very cool thing. We each can evaluate any situation in any of numerous ways. In the show Firefly a girl names River and a guy named Jubal are very perceptive and in-touch with their surroundings. They each evaluate different objects in completely different ways. River sees a gun as a twig and Jubal sees a different gun as pretty and it has a good weight, and he acknowledges and evaluates it as a killing machine. This is a very crazy differential between the two comparisons. How can one person see the a gun as a twig and another person see it as a pretty killing machine? This proves that perception is a very wishy-washy term. Perception can mean a lot of different things. What it is generally used as is a way a person interprets what they are seeeing at the time. This is why sometimes there is no one right answer when two people are in an argument. Each person sees the situation in a different light. Perhaps if two people lived together and grew up with each other than they would perceive things similarly to each other.216 However, it seems like this way be impossible to know. What we do know is that every person is different and every person sees things in a different way from each other. it is almost unfathomable to think that two random people could feel the exact same about anything. There are so many variables.
