Every person has their own way of perception, the process or result of becoming aware through the senses, due to the way one experiences life. Like Penelope Fitzgerald said, "No two people see the external world in exactly the same way. To every separate person a thing is what he thinks it is - in other words, not a thing, but a think."" All we see passes through one's filters, a device where some frequencies are rejected as others pass. The individual's filters are distinct because of what one decides to reject and/or pass. Understanding how things really are would be understanding each and every person's minds dealing with what they believe in and in what areas of knowledge they focus their lives on. There exists different theories of perception that explain how being such a person can change the way one perceives the world, depending on what one self bases on. These people not only focus on their perception but on the different areas of knowledge and ways of knowing through which they understand the filters. .

For example, the death of Kennedy, they were not there to experience it so they cannot be positively sure that what occurred, occurred as the history books or historians themselves say it did.
