Our stories are different; our pain is the same.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
We can't compare stories. We can only know in our hearts that we are the same. That may be the best we can do.
Let's use our stories to encourage listening to one another and to hear not just the good news, but also the pain that lies at the back of a lot of people's stories and histories.
Everybody's got a different way of telling a story - and has different stories to tell.
We're so complex; we're mysteries to ourselves; we're difficult to each other. And then storytelling reminds us we're all the same.
We all have stories we're living and telling ourselves.
I can't write about your pain; I only know my own.
Stories are different every time you tell them - they allow so many possible narratives.
Everyone's story is different, and we can't really be inside them.
I love sharing my story. It's endlessly healing.
Pain is as diverse as man. One suffers as one can.
