Homogeneity in Place, Not in Case

Posted by Sofía Cintrón-Schröder on August 14, 2014 at 9:05 PM

I think it is astonishing how there is always something happening everywhere at any given moment. The world is constantly moving, things are constantly changing, and memories are constantly emerging. To think that right where you stand someone stood before you, whether it were just a minute or an entire century, is amazing. People with different stories and experiences being united just by geography… You are, in a way, sharing an experience with someone you probably do not know and will probably never meet.

Although nobody can undergo the exact same sensations, everybody can be in the exact same place… that is at different times, of course. However, everybody processes certain environments differently. People associate diverse situations with individual reminders. Therefore, in a sense, you are also alone in this enormous world. Alone with your personal thoughts and emotions – things nobody, but you, has experienced in an entirely identical way. I mean we’re all human (at least I think we are) and we all go through similar incidents throughout the course of our lives, but we haven’t elapsed through these in an equal chronological order or in an equal fashion. We are all distinctive and that is a beautiful thing to understand.
