Everyone Sees Things Differently.
Everyone sees things differently.
And that’s not wrong—in fact, it’s how we each understand the world in our own way.
Examples
It reminds me of that theory about color perception: the idea that everyone might be seeing colors differently, but because we were taught to call something “red,” we all agree on the label. I could look at a red ball and someone else might say, “Yeah, that’s red,” but if I could see through their eyes, it might actually look like what I call yellow. There's no way to prove it (as far as I know), but it's a fascinating idea.
Take something simple, like a pot of boiling water. One person might understand it like this: the fire touches the pot, the pot heats up, and that heat boils the water. Another person might understand it on a molecular level: that heat is just atoms moving faster, and that energy is transferred from the fire to the pot to the water molecules until they start bumping around enough to boil. Both perspectives are true in their own way—it’s just different ways of seeing the same thing.
Another example: when riding a bike or motorcycle, you eventually realize that when you lean into a turn, you also have to lean back to “pay back the debt of gravity” you created. I don’t know if that makes sense to others, but that’s how it feels to me—like there's a natural balance you have to respect.

What I’m talking about is kind of like that—but on a broader scale. There are so many things in life that we don’t talk about in detail, yet we each form our own internal explanations for how they work.
I thought of this while trying to visualize how notes work on a guitar. I want to understand how chords are built—not just memorize chord shapes like I’ve always done. I’ve always found the piano or keyboard easier to understand because it's more linear, which is why I never went deep into guitar theory. But now I’m considering learning more piano to better grasp the logic of musical notes.
We often grow up learning by copying the people around us—our parents or guardians. We learn how to clean, cook, brush our teeth, even shower, usually without detailed explanations. Sometimes we follow directions just because someone says, “That’s how you do it,” and we don’t question it. But what if we did?
Maybe not question but to ask yourself and others around you so that you are on the same page, there is a concept people have of being on one side or the other when in reality there is no line and its only about the way someone looks at a topic, we simplify to feel like ok I'm on the right(correct) side and that calms the mind from having to think about what you really believe which can turn into an entirely different topic with people doing things that are easier
This is a short ramble about how I see people thinking about things in different ways
Everything is relative!
Yes exactly, I talked about this in another post a while back, thanks for the comment.
