An essential component of human perception is the experience of a sensation which leads an individual to feel that they are a separate system that is differentiated from that which is around them. This is commonly referred to as one's identity, ego or sense of self. In linguistic conversation, it is referred to through the use of pronouns such as "I", "me", "mine" and "myself" as a tool for contrasting one's self from other people or any other system which is not felt to be them. | An essential component of human perception is the experience of a sensation which leads an individual to feel that they are a separate system that is differentiated from that which is around them.
