We are like a beam of light which changes depending on the lens through which we project ourselves. The final form changes based on the situation (lens).

I think I would say we project different aspects of ourselves into lower dimensions (thoughts and words) depending on the transformation function (context into which we are projecting ourselves).

You get a twofer of analogies today!

Such a great way to articulate this. This is why I love HN.
