[QUOTE="wyldberi, post: 92957, member: 6095"] I've always seen the old woman in this picture; I have to work at it to see the young woman. But that's the way it is with us old souls. :) As for the original proposition: Things are never what they appear to be to us. All of our perceptions are filtered through our individual sensory gathering and processing systems. Right away they get filtered through our understanding that is mediated by whatever the consensual reality happens to be today. Then our experience gets filtered through our memory, which contains the record of everything we've ever experienced. Of course, a large part of those memories are suppressed below our level of awareness, and reside in our unconscious. When the new experience comes out the other side, we finally manage to "see" or "hear" the experience in whatever format it happened to have been transmitted in. But I can pretty much guarantee you, what you perceive at that point won't be anything like what really took place. [/QUOTE]
