The world makes much less sense than you think. The coherence comes mostly from the way your mind works.

Daniel Kahneman
About This Quote

If you are feeling alone or misunderstood, you are not alone. The world is full of people who feel the same way. If you have questions, have a conversation with someone who has had some experience in the area that is confusing to you. If you are not sure about something or somewhere, don’t just sit around thinking about it.

Go out and explore it. The world makes much less sense than you think.
