Sonder is the feeling of realization that every single person we meet, everywhere throughout our lives, including strangers we pass in the street, the cashiers at the convenience stores, the barista that made us coffee, everyone we talk to and read on the internet, each and every one of them has a life as complex as our own, which they are constantly living despite our personal lack of awareness of it.
As a result, each and every one of them have their own truth, different with ours.
And their own pain, their own inspirations that move them.
Their lives are filled with their own ambitions, friends, routines, worries and craziness.
Every one of them value different things differently.
Sonder is the realization that everyone we meet is not an NPC in a game where we are the main character.
Everyone has a story.
The word "sonder" was created by writer John Koenig.
