This is why living as a fractured version of ourselves is so detrimental. It keeps us disconnected from the very people who can relate to us the most and can be pivotal in helping us connect to ourselves; because they may live a similar experience as you do every day. You need the love and support of both those who have different experiences from you as well as those who have similar experiences as you are on this journey of deep work if you want to both be whole and experience the world as a whole.
