Think about it.

Sonder: "The realization that each random passerby is living a life as vivid and complex as your own."

Let this sink in for a moment

Think about yourself, really think.

Think about your dreams

What do you want to be, what does your heart desire to do?

What is the one thing you could wake up doing every day and be happy with?

Do you dream about love?

The one you want to marry, the kids you may have? Do you dream about the future, the problems you have now, how you want them to change?

What do you fear?

Whether it be big, or small.

Is there someone you really hate right now?

What was the last fight you got into?

The last time tears fell from your eyes?

When you think about your childhood, was it good or bad?

Do you have pet peeves?

What are your unique quirks?

Are you waiting on something, or someone?

Your favorite color..your style..your favorite kind of music..do you have an addiction?

Maybe all those questions were answered in your head, maybe some unanswered

The person you last saw, the kid sitting next to you in class, the woman in line next to you at the store, the man you saw walking down the street, your best friend, your brother, your mom, your dad.

They can all answer these questions, or leave them unanswered.

Every person that reads this -

We'll all be different.

Every life is a story,

Each story is as vivid and complex as your own
