Our difference are beautiful yet sometimes connection requires us to focus on our similarities, like the fact that we are all trying, all struggling, all wanting to be seen and to be loved. Perhaps if we start there, with this basic understanding of what it means to be alive, we will grow in our connection to one another and learn to love the beautiful difference that embody our improbable human reality.

About This Quote

When in the company of others, ultimately the most important things are to be seen and to be loved. We are all trying to be seen with our differences yet when we focus on our similarities, we will realize that we are all just human beings trying to survive with our differences. Perhaps if we start with what it means to be alive, with the basic essential of being alive, perhaps then we will understand one another. We will understand the difference between us and what is most important is that we are all trying to survive, all struggling for someone to see us and love us.
