    Decisions Base on: Perception or Reality? Have you ever thought you heard something, but there was nothing there? Have you ever thought you saw someone in the corner of your eye, and when you looked there was no person there? When we look down from a high building on people, do they appear small like ants? Aren't there thousands of occasions when we do misperceive? What is reality and perception? Mainstream science describes reality as "the state of things as they actually exist".

    Reality or just Perception? Imagine one day you wake up and look out the window. Nevertheless, what you see is nothing like your local neighbor’s house. But a jungle full of wild animals. You know the jungle is not real...or is it? This comes to the question, what is the reality? Is it something we see immediately? Is it something we believe in? Reality could be anything.

    What is reality? The answer to that question can vary depending on the person asked.

    In my opinion, perception is not reality because there are a lot of things that can trick our eyes. In other words, what we see might not be true because there might be something we think it’s true but it’s actually not. For example, In heartbeat by David Yoo, Dave looks bigger because he wear more than one shirt under his coat.(page CR27) It is very hard to decide whether perception is reality. However, I think perception is not reality because there are really a lot of ways that our eyes can be

    Perception and Reality in a Simulated World SHAWN LIU 2018.03.02 P6 ENGLISH Perception is not reality. Technology that once fooled our eyes are evolving into complex machines and illusions that makes it ever harder to distinguish the real from fake.

    True existence is hidden behind images and information, comparing appearance to reality. Plato tells a story about a man who has been imprisoned since childhood and has been chained up by his legs and arms. The prisoner watches stories through the fire and shadows on the wall that enable him to believe they are the most real things in the world. He eventually escapes from the underground cave and becomes liberated from the darkness. Slowly, his eyes begin to adjust and his foundational view on the

    False Perception is Not Reality The relationship between exterior appearances and interior “truths” can be complicated because people sometimes assume that the outside reflects what’s on the inside. Therefore, one’s exterior perception can be deceiving. When someone places their trust in another and hold a false perception of that person, they give them the power to be deceived which only hurts them in the end. Likewise, many people feel as if the only way to be happy is through deception. In the

    Russell’s main argument from both chapter one and two is that reality of the world or any physical object must be inferred from what we know about our own sense data. As all other things, appearances of physical objects and color can be deceiving, and change between different sets of onlookers. For example, a person could say that heard a gunshot go off when at the time fireworks were being set off nearby. The belief that they actually heard a gunshot go off cannot be necessarily plausible if fireworks
