The Blessing of Commonality

Imagine going through life and having nothing in common with anyone you met. How lonely would that be? I didn't realize how much I draw strength and hope from finding one person who shares common feelings, experiences or struggles. The circumstances can be completely different, but when those circumstances bring about the same struggle, it creates a bond that cannot be explained. Life is no longer as lonely and solitary because another human being understands just a little of what you are thinking/feeling.

Ahhhh . . . like water to a thirsty soul . . .
