Before, I used to be a “perception is reality” kinda person.

Later, I changed into a “perception is a lie” kinda person.

Now, I wonder if I’ve become more Machiavellian: “Reality is a practical and real understanding of the world that enables actual effectiveness. Perception is a notion, a conception of the world that could be clouded by bias, or a fictional story.”

I’m still a work in progress.
