Social Distortion - a Corridor of Glass

Social Distortion – a Corridor of Glass

 

We have all heard the idiom of not casting stones at others if you live in a glass house but do you know what it is like to walk through a corridor of glass? Can you imagine never stepping outside your house and getting an opportunity to enjoy the fresh air from the outdoors and be constantly surrounded with walls of translucent see-through glass walls to protect you and shelter you from life?

 

Certainly, one can say that living with glass around you is seeing life through rose colored glasses although one might mention the fact that although the glass may give a person a sense of sensibility or reality, it doesn’t give the mind enough to allow the sensory receptors to work at its fullest dampening some levels of understanding in what you see, hear, feel or touch and smell.

 

No glass is perfectly aligned, created or shaped thus the distortion of whatever you might see, is real. In addition, stress might be induced if living under such extreme conditions were to be prolonged either physically or mentally. The glass corridor by itself creates a probable imperfection. There will be impaired functions of the human senses and miscalculate whatever the brain might suppose if the examination processed is real or not.

 

Looking through glass can change shapes, perceptions and every other function of the mind. In other words, glass gives us evidence that it can and does created an altered perception. This makes looking at the outside from the inside different than standing on the outside and looking outside. By chance, looking to the inside through the glass will also alter the perception as the glass distorts whatever it is you are gazing at as whatever you see, is distorted by the glass’s properties and effects. Whatever it is you are looking at from behind the glass is technically out of focus.

 

One can see the social implications by making decisions when looking through a corridor of glass. This change of focus could in fact have repercussions unprepared to deal with as it alters the truth from another angle provided without the glass. One has to admit that no two similar things may occur as the view through the anomalous panel likely will be designated, at least initially, as ‘out of focus.’ 

 

Thereby, there could be two different views made when you look at whatever is visible through the glass and judge the perception distorted or typically real even when the glass has refractions, altered shapes and colors and other distortion qualities not mentioned in this article.

 

So how can one brag that looking through a corridor of glass is looking at the truth? If someone was to be asked what they saw under oath, they would speak what they believe to be the truth but in reality, it was their own distortion that may not resemble anyone else’s view.

This fact should cause some concern for uncertainties and other factual evidence in testimony and related cases. Looking through polished glass can and does alter the landscape or objects viewed as well as looking through raw surfaced glass does the same providing an anomalous situation but still different in properties.

 

Just because these panels are opaque or transparent or even tinted there is real evidence presented scientifically that could dispute the actual conditions described or detailed when it also applies when you are looking out of a car window that is also shaped, angled or fabricated to meet the contour of the vehicle and giving the viewer a pure refraction in nature. This fact alone takes us into a gray area of what is factual or perceived to be the truth.

 

The same can be said for a person wearing glasses or contacts or sunglasses. If you wear glass to cover your eyes, it might produce a superior or inferior capacity for resolution of the object’s details. Regardless, the view is distorted whether we want to admit it or not as its true state is different from what was seen.

 

One could concede that all glass panels are distorted but that, demonstrably, some are unacceptably thus for this article serves as a fact for practical purposes only and a baseline for comprehending the concept. Moreover, since final resolution is precluded, experimentation with different size and shape of panels always entails the empirical possibility that--given a new focus--a decision may be reached that certain innovative panels are not as distorted, for practical purposes, as other existing panels. I am certain how something like glass can tamper with the mind in many different ways.

 

Perhaps, one could propose that such perceptually expanding or refining panels are ‘positive’ distortions relative to the eclipsed ones and more importantly, we could perhaps concede that in the social world or community, the distinction between distortions is often man-made and not noticeable or taken into consideration when the mental process takes place and therefore not bogus or untruthful when in fact, it might be totally false in perception.
