We All Feel the Same

It’s utterly astonishing how universal our feelings are. Even though we are all from different backgrounds and have been subject to different upbringings, I often think about how many constants there are when it comes to our emotions. I mean, no matter how much we may want to be different, or no matter how much someone can try to put up a wall and be insular, the fact remains that we are all so very similar in what we experience in this life.

It’s never too difficult to relate to anyone’s situation, whatever it may be. We all have weathered storms, we all have felt the joys and the pains that this life brings, and although we have felt them through experiences that may be different from someone else’s, the feelings were nevertheless the same. I mean, how often do we hear of someone talk about heartache or pain, and although we may not have gone through EXACTLY what they’re describing, we can think of something on par or comparable and in turn know exactly how that person may be feeling?

It’s crazy, I know that I may not have experienced the same degree of despair, or the same degree of ecstasy as some individuals, but I’ve damn sure carved a wide spectrum of emotional experience, and I honestly feel that I can relate something that has happened in my past to whatever anyone else may be going through.

We are all the same yet different, different yet the same. There’s no way around it.

Isn’t it ironic? We ignore the ones who adore us, adore the ones who ignore us, love the ones who hurt us, and hurt the ones who love us.
