Every once in a while, you'll be reminded by some experience or event about what's really important in life. This event may make you step back and realize that a lot of the struggles we have in our own lives aren't as important as they sometimes feel. When we separate ourselves out, we remember we are a drop in the ocean.
This doesn't mean our experiences aren't significant, but it does soften the perspective on them somehow. Zooming out opens you up to truly connecting with others, building compassion, and seeing your own struggles differently. As your attention shifts, your thoughts and feelings will naturally shift too.
