We define perception as one's interpretation of his sensation. The moment one gives his own meaning to what he saw, listened to, or felt, he is actually giving his perception. Our perception of others maybe influenced by several factors including our own biases, prejudices and yes our subjective feeling towards the person.
Pag tiningnan ka ng isang tao ng galit na kinaiinisan mo, iisipin mo na baka na pinagtitripan ka niya o di kaya ay hinahamon ka niya. Subalit kapag tiningnan ka ng taong "crush" mo, tuwang tuwa ka at marahil ay iisipin mo na baka crush ka din niya.
That would somehow show that our perception is somehow affected by our personal involvement or our desire of involvement with the situation, thing, or person.
What's wrong with this? It could be very normal. However, it seems to be limiting the level of our objectivity when we perceive situation, thing or the person within the context of our personal, subjective meaning. The next time that we are given the opportunity to give meaning, be sure we are looking at the objective reality rather than be manipulated by our subjectivity.
