One's own sense of reality

We always interpret the world through our own lenses or sense of reality. It is affected by the social environment, family, religion, education, and many other aspects of our lives. The effect is partly conscious and largely unconscious. We don’t even realize how often we have unconsciously misinterpreted something due to our own biases, assumptions, or prejudices. And this happens to all of us!
