Relativism

No two people perceive in the same manner. One's perception depends on the situations and the factors taken into consideration by oneself. The way a person looks at it at a particular point of time also depends on his emotional state and mental state. All these factors together play the tricky part of the game. This theory seems simple at first but it is more complex compared to the Einstein's Theory of relativity. :)

It is difficult to predict people's reactions, opinions and decisions. The main reason behind it is the complexity of relativism. Good and bad are relative terms. They differ with persons, events and conditions.

Consider the saying, "Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder". Beauty of a painting, to a person might mean "how good it looks, how vibrant are the colors and how perfect are the strokes "..  but to somebody else it might mean "how deeper is the vision of the artist". Both perceive it as a beautiful painting but the beauty indeed lies in the 'eyes of the beholder'. :)
