Intelligence v.s. Perception




Intelligence as many would say would be your typical street smarts or book smarts,but it is far more than that. It is the ability to learn and solve problems .If you have intelligence you have intellect and vice- versa.These two things enable you to reason between situations. While perception is the ability to perceive. Perceiving is knowledge obtained by becoming aware of things and situations through your senses.True perception stems from security, self esteem comes from plain perception, whereas insecurity comes from a lack of identity or bruised perception. It is all in the way you look at things, the way you see yourself and less importantly the way the world sees you. Perception is not everything to an individual, it can either help you by finding your own true self, or it can ruin you (which is what it does to most) by making you do whatever the world around you does.Like liberals. Intelligence will allow you to see things as the truly are, while perception from ones mind may be different to anothers'.Sensation stems from perception. It is a feeling of immense gratitude, it is a sense of being highly pleased. It is what allows you to accept a compliment or a good deed when people perceive what they see and put thoughts into action. All of this call upon attention, which heeds others and allows you and others around you notice their surroundings.Your memory plays apart in all of this by allowing you to remember things that have happened to you and others whether they are significant or not. All of these make associations, or connections within ones mind which kicks in your intelligence and the ability to reason as well as turning on your perception to enable you to have a secure or insecure idea on how you are to base things. And finally your imagination is what allows you to compile all of these things together within your head and make up day dreams or just dreams based upon your range of intelligence and the way you perceive situations.It is what allows someone to make up stories of princesses being rescued by a handsome prince of the world going into utter chaos over a small situation. That is probably what all those pause( ll ) commercials are for. And your attention calls all of it to mind.
As we go about our daily lives doing what we do everyday we do not stop to think of our train of thoughts and the way we look at things as easy as intelligence verses perception. But if we were to really stop and think which is really the superior one. If we were to really stop we would see that intelligence out ways perception by far. It is better to base your thought upon what you know to be true by your own beliefs than to let a whole world govern you. A world that has grown to know and love images only leaving it with scornful regrets. It would be better to be the moral and virtuous person with intelligence living life than to have everything based upon the perceptions of a world that has already fallen through the cracks.
