Hey Jen! This is excellent! I love your point about assumptions! Our brain just LOVES filling in the gaps — and while often this is useful, it can also totally get in our way! I love your point about the way we assume we are different from others, or that they are different from us! I also find that when we, as humans, go deep enough in sharing our feelings, we realize how similar our human experiences are, even when they look different on the surface.
