What do I look like to others? This question popped into my head the other day. I couldn't tell you when or how I just know it did. When I look into the mirror I see myself in a certain way. My brain seemingly automatically just looks somewhere and focuses. Maybe one day I'll be looking at my hair or how many freckles I've gained since the beginning of summer. My point being that in my mind I look a certain way, but do I actually look the way I think I look? Do any of us actually look or act like the perceptions we have of ourselves?
Since no one has constant out of body experiences (at least not to my knowledge) there really is no way to see how we actually act or look 100 percent of the time. Unless you walk around all the time with a full 360 degree barrage mirrors, but even then the image is skewed. If only there was a way to transplant your occipital lobe into another person to see what they see. Get a chance actually notice the differences between their perception and yours. If I sound crazy that's just me.
So, me being me, I decided to use trusty Google and do some searching. I found this article talking about how we perceive others reflects on our self. How I think of another person may say something about my personality. My question for you is do you see others, even complete strangers, in a positive or negative light? Is that consistent to what type of person you are? How do you perceive others or even yourself?
