When life feels heavy,

It's important that you learn how to zoom out.

Take a moment of sonder.

Sonder is the powerful realization that every other person on this planet is living a life as vivid and complex as your own.

This person has their own story with their own hopes,

Dreams,

And even their own challenges.

While one person is having the absolute best moment of their life right now,

Another is having their very worst.

And everywhere in between.

We get to be a part of that.

If you walk down a busy street,

Notice everyone around you.

They have purpose.

They have goals.

They have desires and wants.

They have hurts.

They have pain.

All of these people on this planet are living a unique experience that they are at the center of.

And it's a really beautiful thing.

And so when your own life feels too heavy,

And you're zoomed in on all of your struggles and hardships and stresses and strain,

I want you to take a moment for sonder.
