Everyone perceives and sees every situation in life from a different point of view. Some see one thing that another might have missed, some notice detail others just notice the big picture. I personally notice detail about everything, from watching how people interact to looking over a cliff at a landscape. I've picked up on things in the last couple of years that I don't think other people involved did.
On September 11, 2001 there was a tragedy in America, we were attacked by terrorists. Obviously the citizens of New York have a different impression of it than a farmer in Iowa. I really didn't think anything like that would ever happen because it hadn't before. Even after it was over I wasn't worried that anything else would happen, I didn't even think about it. I think the reason I looked at it this way is because It didn't physically affect me in any way. I should have been more concerned considering I was a mile from the largest air force base in the country when it happened. I don't understand why Americans were so worried another attack would occur right after the first one. The terrorists were obviously very intelligent; they"re not stupid enough to try anything after that because we"d be ready. .
At the beginning of this year I refrained from drinking for three months for personal reasons. I still socialized and went to parties I just drank water and hung out. This was the first time in my life were I was sober in a drinking environment, it was odd. One thing I noticed was how peoples" inner soul really comes out in the open. If you"re a shy person there's a reason for that, usually tracing back to your childhood, those types come alive and talkative at parties. The reckless types just get more reckless and pass out. I also notice how stupid I must of came off to others when I was drunk. I also noticed that the more bodies you pack in to a small space the more out of control things get.
