You Only Know Your Own Universe
A little bit of empathy really goes a long way to finding out if your spouse really loves you.
PERCEPTION IS NOT REALITY
I hear often the opposite of this headline. Everyone thinks their perception is reality. If you hear something you pay attention. If you see something it appears real. If you feel something you know it’s real.
I think most people define their relationship precisely as this reality.
What happens if what you see, touch, hear and feel are not real? What if this entire experience you swear is true — is really an illusion. I am not being philosophical. I am asking you a simple question.
Do you know the difference between your relationship being based on perception versus observation?

Psychology and the cognitive sciences define Perception as — the process of getting, interpreting, selecting, and organizing sensory information. (2)
