Perception and Consciousness

Perception is how we interpret information from our senses, allowing us to understand our environment and ourselves. It's what we see, hear, touch, and feel. Consciousness is our awareness of thoughts and experiences, enabling us to reflect on our own existence and choices. Self-consciousness takes this further, making us aware of our thoughts and feelings about ourselves, often leading us to question how we are seen by others. Together, these concepts shape our identity and human experience, influencing how we relate to the world and those around us.
