Does the sun rise from east ??

We are used to the fact that the sunrises from the eastliterally it may be true so, but metaphorically is it? Does sun rise from the east? Or is it just our perception.
We draw a preliminary conclusion of things around us the first time we see them or come in contact with them. Things project a picture that we grasp as their true characteristics, yet due to some reason or the other few of the details either we miss out or they are subconsciously withheld.
As we gain experience we gain insight and we come to the truer characteristics that are projected. We change our mental perception regarding the thing.
These few paragraphs i presented above are quite general in nature but there are deviations from the general perceptions, which we tend to ignore
Firstly at times even though we change our perception with time but in quite a lot many instances the initial characteristics presented may be the truest.
Secondly even though we gain experience with time and form a mental picture of the thing, yet one question we need to ask ourselves is whether we gave sufficient time to understand the object under consideration? Whether our analysis was unbiased? Did our egos subconsciously come in the way of our logical reasoning?
My advice to all is given the time you have, do justice to the object of consideration, give it a fair bit of chance to shine and then only record its value. Most importantly one needs to get out of his comfort zones and needs to move towards uncharted territories to be able to realize relevant opportunities to move ahead in life (if that be your goal), or just simply gain insight of various nuances of life.
