Reaction to Fisher

 I was able to understand characteristics of perception well by reading this text. We have five ways of perceptions like seeing, hearing, tasting, smelling and touching. However, seeing is most powerful in five ways. We get a lot of information by seeing, so we tend to believe what we see. I want to reinforce other ways of perceptions.

 Especially, I am interested in selective characteristic of perception. People including me often believe only what we want to believe. Fisher said that the capacity of the brain is limited, so we need to choice perceptions. We want to remember good things, and ignore other things. It must be true. However, we sometimes cannot forget what I want to forget, like shocking things. The perception we select depends on our brain, not on our mind. We can choice what we want to percive, but we cannot choice what we do not want to percive. Therefore, we try to change bad things to good things by interpretating.

 The perceptions are essential in our daily lives. I want to control my perception if it is possible.
