          We encounter information/stimuli about a person:

          nature

          According to our
          beliefs
          bias
          partiality
          prejudice
          predilictions
          rationalisations
          judgements
          dogmas
          priorities

          Shaped by our
          family of origin
          culture
          religion
          education
          personality
          experiences

          In the blink of an eye...
          We decide what they are,
          by what we are.
