"I am one with the Force; the Force is with me"
- Donnie Yen's character Chirrut Îmwe in Rogue One.
In Star Wars, the Jedi believe that when someone dies, their spirit adds to the Force. And then the Force is what guides the living Jedi to victory, correct decision-making, etc.
I think that true empathy is our non sci-fi version of the Force. If we are truly able to put ourselves into the mindset of a friend, family member, client, or even perfect stranger, AND if we can sit with them in their grief, i honestly think that the end product is strength for the grieving person. I think this simple act connects us at the very deepest of levels. I think it binds us together as humans, and supports us long term.
My goal is to be one with my fellow humans, in my job, and in my life.
