One thing I've learned as a writer is that different characters perceive the events happening around them (and the people involved in those events) differently. Or, in my opinion, good well-written characters should perceive the events differently. For example, one of my philosophies is that there is no clear-cut good or evil; there are simply different ways to the end that people can take that others perceive as good or evil.
With that in mind, I began thinking of myself and how I'm seen from different angles.

How I think others perceive me:

How my kids perceive me:
How my wife perceives me:
How I lie to myself about my wife's perceptions of me:
How my sister-in-law perceives me:
How my parents perceive me:
How I wish to be perceived:
