Topic: You Are Not That Different

In our times of darkness, pain, and trouble, it is common for us to think, we are the only one who has ever felt the way we do. When you feel like you are the only one who has ever felt as you do, the truth is what you are feeling is common to all people in similar circumstances. Darkness, pain, and trouble make us feel isolated. In our isolation we think we are the only one. However, thinking we are the only one is a great deception. We must strive to understand this issue about isolation because we are, in fact, not isolated. When we understand we are isolated only in our personal thinking and we understand we are not the only one, then we have the power to reach out to others and help others facing the same issues we face. In reaching out we not only affirm we are not the only one, we make sure others are also thinking they are not the only one. By reaching out to others, we help destroy the darkness, pain, and trouble in them and in ourselves. We help destroy the isolation which helping us see we are not the only one.
