Perception is to judge people by their religion, by their skin color, by how they dress, by how they look and by their culture...
We see things as we want to see it because our environment affects us and maybe will change our thoughts. The media also gives us some negative informations on something/someone as well. Books, T.V, news paper and magazines provide us informations that sometimes aren't right which make us have wrong thoughts about some people. Like us Egyptians, when we see Philippines, we always think that they are here in our country to work as mades, which isn't right because some of them come as tourists, some come to work as nurses in schools... Another example of things we see in our own way is when we see a black skinned guy, some people automatically think that they are terrorists. When we treat them in a bad way or go away from them, they'll be hurt, they are human beings just like us and have feelings too. Another thing that affects our thinking is our parents and our upbringing. When young kids are with them parents and see a girl and a boy walking together they think: "That girl isn't raised right and she might be a bad girl." No one, no matter who he/she is has the right to judge someone, and who knows the boy might be the girl's brother or cousin. Who knows?! Another example is when people see a veiled women they think: " Ohh! She must be very religious, we shouldn't get close to people like her!"
When someone thinks that way, they should know that they aren't well educated enough, because a well educated person accepts everyone by how they look and how they are... I think people should really stop getting into things that doesn't concern, and stop saying comments about how people's look, outfit, education, house, social life... Because these things are personal things. We don't need to get in others lives. What we need now is to respect and love each other so we can all have success in our lives and live a happy life that everyone wants to live...
