Read along with the original article(s) here: https://drkellyflanagan.com/the-one-thing-with-the-power-to-bring-us-all-together/ Quotes to ponder: "Pain can make little children empty piggy banks for a stranger who doesn’t feel like a stranger anymore because they share the common ground of disappointment and loneliness." "Can you imagine a world of people equalized by their pain? Can you imagine a world where our sense of home doesn’t end at the front door?" "Suffering is the great equalizer. From herniated disks to surprising loneliness to shocking divorces to unexpected diagnoses, every single one of us will eventually be equalized by pain and suffering."
