Sometimes quotes or sayings can change the way I look at things, is this one profound for you?

I think for me, because my life lately has been very much filled with both the very exciting and happy (weddings, babies, great new experiences) and the very shocking and sad (death, divorce, trauma), I understand what she is saying and empathize, but it isn't startling or profound for me. However, I can see why it would be. If it motivates you to try to understand someone else's situation, go with it. Anything that helps you expand your understanding is ultimately going to help you be a better person.
