Understanding the Fishbowl of Perception
Being transparent about personal vulnerabilities can help to encourage others to open up. Many people are born into systems or communities that they don't fully understand, living in a 'fishbowl' without realizing it. The speaker's experience of being born into a deeply religious community was the singular reality they had, and they didn't realize they were in a 'fishbowl' until they were 21. This has led the speaker to wonder about other 'fishbowls' they might be in and to make it a lifelong endeavor to understand their perception and what they can't see. The speaker reflects that the default state for humans is living in 'fishbowls' and not understanding what they don't know, making their endeavor to understand their own perceptions unique compared to everything else in the world.
