Perception is Reality

"Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one." - Albert Einstein

This a philosophical statement that says "Perception is Reality" meaning that the perception of every person and its unique thinking shapes that person's reality and how they see everything. This means that every person has a different reality, and comparing it with Albert Einstein's quote, it says that there is no real reality, because reality means that there is one thing, it is the same for everybody, and with the different perception that every person has because they do not see the same thing and they do not love something or are dedicated to the same thing as much as someone else is. In example, you may love a book, you read it over and over again and never get tierd of reading it although you already know the ending and how everything is structed, and when it happens, there is another person who hates the book, the perception in this book is different, and in some bigger scales, perhaps not a book, changes the reality in which you live in, like jobs you like or dislike, or perhaps what subjects you like and are willing to spend time in for the rest of your life, maybe someone hates that and shapes your realities different. In conclusion, the different Perception of every human being shapes their reality in a different way, never being two alike.
