“Through cancer and grief and disappointment and unexpected turns in career - through the very breakdown and rearrangement of the things I have loved - I have come to realize that, as water smoothes stone and enters sand, we become each other.”
Hardships, pain, suffering is what connects us. It makes us the same. We all know what grief feels like. We all know the suffocating feeling after the loss of a loved one. Suffering helps us sympathize with others and be compassionate. Our pain deepens our love for others and ourselves. Grief cracks us open, to life - to love - and to each other. It is what keeps us connected.
WE BECOME EACH OTHER
