It showed me that we can all find happiness if we accept that we’re all alike, each trying to live our best life. Being unkind to others means overlooking the beauty in our shared struggles and efforts.So true. In addition to what you mentioned, I believe that there is no objective value in anything we see, have, share, etc. Rather we have societal norms and values. Within that we each have created our own masks and false selves as well. Beneath these layers can be found the real you and me, and everyone else who are a part of a shared consciousness and a universe, struggling in the same struggle, yet unknowingly. This book guides us to understand that as a matter of fact.
