Eternally the Other

No person is ever able to fully enter into the experience of another person, and you never fully know what’s going on in the life of someone else, even the people you’re closest to. The most seemingly banal person online, or even in person, is far more rich and interesting than we tend to give them credit for. And there’s always going to be suffering they experience that you know nothing about. It’s always worth remembering in our tendency to reduce people down to something less than what they are.
