Sonder is the understanding that everyone around you is living a life as vivid and complex as your own.
It aligns with the adage that if everyone put the shit that they’re dealing with in a pile and then they were able to pick and choose what they take back, they would take their own after seeing what other’s are dealing with.
It’s also brought to life when you show empathy and curiosity for another. It’s amazing what people are doing beyond what you’re originally talking with them about.
All the more reason to be human. Because everyone else is.
Stay Positive & Humble
