Perception, when applied to others,
(e.g., why did they do that? what were they thinking?
This must be there intention / motivation / reasoning)
will usually be flawed... And is always uncertain.

But

Perception, when applied to the self,
(e.g., how am I framing this? where is my awareness?
This moment only exists this way because I choose to view it as such)
is a compass... And a lens for finding certainty.
Written after a conversation with my friend Jeffrey; the greatest podcast we never recorded... written on the evening of my last night in Portland / living with friends / as a "bachelor."
