When we are little children we are shown items and told “blue” sky, and “red” apple.
But colors are constantly changing due to type of light, ie fluorescent, full sun, overcast, etc. And we each perceive things differently.
Imagine you are shown a picture of a stop sign at the age of two. Your Mom repeats “red”. It is a beautiful cloudless summer day and the two of you are on the back deck.
Now, on the other side of the world, my Mother is showing little two year old me a stop sign and teaching me the color is red. It is winter where I’m at and snowing outside. The combination of fluorescent lights and blue cartoon on the television reflecting back off the book and my eyes themselves make my stop sign appear more of a purple to me. But Mama is calling it “red” so I associate THAT particular color I see as being CALLED red.
So now we are both grown up, and I know the color I see on the stop sign is named red, and so do you.
Wrap your mind around that one :)
Have you ever considered that we each see different colors for the same thing?

I have also wondered about that this. And also how you see person A and how I see person A. Do we see the same thing? Let's take Person A to be a beautiful woman or what we will imagine a beautiful woman to look like. Some people will say that she is the most beautiful woman in the world, while some sees her as average and some will say she is not even that beautiful. What do we see different then?
Great post. Something to think about
if you woke up as a diffeent person everyday, would you even know? because ou would wake up with a nw persons thougts and emmories and friends anc clothes and u wouldnt even know
I love it . I've often thought about the way we see colours and most things really. Our brains decode things differently so you never know.
Nice post.
Why thank you. :)

Can attraction be both cultural and literal "chemistry", you are attracted to the type of DNA best suited with your own, for reproductive health?

Hm, interesting. Consciousness swapping...
