Perception plays a major role in everyday life. It determines the choices that one makes. Not only does it let you paint your very own picture of the world, but it is the determining factor of daily choices you make; whether consciously aware of it or struggling for an answer.
"Rabbit or Duck" is a well known illusion, much like the image we saw in class of the old lady that doubles as a young lady. It is a picture, where you can see both a duck and rabbit, depending on your perception.
The comedy TV series, "How I Met You Mother" has an episode titled, "Rabbit or Duck". The episode portrays how perception and interpretation can be applied to everyday life. Something as basic as dating, can be as simple, or as complex as you make it. You might have predetermined thoughts about people or things based on prior experience, and from that, you can subconsciously "judge";however, there may be a whole other side that you are not accounting for. It emphasizes the very fine line between love and hate.
In this episode, they apply perception to dating and how people can look at others in a completely different matter, and how your perception can change, once exposed to the "otherside"
They categorize people as being a "duck" or "rabbit", from the gecko each person has a different opinion as whether the duck or rabbit is more preferable. Then when applying them to people, it becomes even more complex, especially when somebody you thought of as a "rabbit" all along, turns out to be a "duck".
