I'm not seeing most of the photons. Most of the photons emitted from the table aren't headed toward my eyeballs, right? They're going in other directions. So, yeah, most of reality I'm not perceiving. Not to mention the fact that I'm in a room, which is an infinitesimally tiny fraction of the whole space of reality. I don't even have my window open, so I can't even see the outside world right now.
