I see your glasses, they stand out. You wear massive frames. Sometimes you look really bad in glasses. Maybe your answer is to ignore that you even have glasses on. I wear glasses too and most of the time I can't tell that they're on either. If I try and look at myself I can only see the tip of my nose, I only partly see the glasses I wear.

your glasses are better for some things than mine are,

Hey man, yeah I was just thinking about the way we all frame our reality with our bias, experience, ego and whatever else. It's more than getting people to see us as we'd like, we spend so much time seeing everything (particularly ourselves) through our own eyes as we would like - quite often without even knowing it. I was also studying a little bit of Sarte who was a French philosopher who believed that "The act is everything." Sartre's idea of reality parallels Descartes', "I am, I exist, I think, therefore I am; I am because I think, why do I think? I don't want to think any more, I am because I think that I don't want to be." Sarte also talked about the concept of love and relationships as a struggle. We choose our friends on the basis of our conceptions of ourselves, which is not to suggest that we choose people like ourselves, but we pick people who reinforce or improve that conception. Sarte suggests that friendship is more than falling in with people who we find that we like, friendship is more like an agreement. Friendship is
