The mirror of your life

Have you ever wondered if there is someone in the world who is dealing with the same things that you are?

The web is full of quotes that will tell you you're not alone, that people have felt the way you felt and got through it and all sorts of other cheesy affirmations, but is that really true? Sure, many people have experienced death of a loved one, an injury, illness, a broken heart, loss of job, abuse etc etc. but what about those more specific things. Is there someone who has experienced death of a loved one in the same way that you have? Lost the person in the same way and felt about it the same way? What about less tragic things that normal people seem to deal with without thinking twice but for some reason to you they seem like most horrible things that could happen? Is there anyone else out there who is as weird as you? For whom the obvious solution to said problem is the equivalent of deciding to climb Mount Everest by yourself while a firing squad aims at you and every person in the world is standing around pointing and laughing. I sure hope so.
