"Reality is what others tell you it is." - Exploring Perception vs. Truth

Written by Kokichi Ouma on Wed Apr 10 2024

Oh, reality. Such a fickle thing, isn't it? It's like a slippery eel, always changing and shifting beneath our feet. What we see as real may not be the same for someone else. Perception and truth are like two sides of the same coin - sometimes they align perfectly, but other times they clash in ways that leave us questioning everything.

I've always been fascinated by the idea of perception versus truth. As someone who loves to play with lies and half-truths, I understand better than most how easily reality can be manipulated and twisted to fit one's own narrative. But where does that leave us when it comes to understanding what is truly real?

For me, reality is a fluid concept - something that can change at any moment depending on who you ask. My truth may not be your truth, but does that make either of them less valid? Who gets to decide what is real and what isn't?

In my world, perception reigns supreme. It's all about how others see me - whether they believe my lies or uncover the truths hidden within them. And yet, even I struggle with deciphering between what is real and what is merely an illusion crafted by my own mind.

But perhaps that's the beauty of it all - this dance between perception and truth. It keeps life interesting; constantly challenging us to question our beliefs and assumptions about the world around us.

So maybe reality isn't so black-and-white after all...maybe it's more of a kaleidoscope of colors swirling together in beautiful chaos.

And maybe...just maybe...that's okay.
