Recency Bias

[catwomon]

I believe that because of my blindness, I live recency bias each and every day. Until this topic, however, I did not have a word for this most necessary way of life. From the moment I rise in the morning, until the slow slide toward sleep at night, I have a mental inventory of my environment. There is a rather fixed location for everything I own.

This is the perfect interpretation of the prompt. And you've made me think - about several things. Thank you for writing this.

I love how it put all the tiny changes in sighted peoples lives can be so big for you into perspective

This is such an interesting point of view - you make me look at the world in a whole new way.

All of this is very true. Chairs, tables, cars, toys. All of these things clutter the sidewalks. (Sigh)
