No warrior escaped the battle undamaged, and no fighter returned home undamaged. We frequently compare ourselves to others without realizing that those we admire are also bleeding; just because we can't see their wounds doesn't mean they aren't in pain. We have many types of pain, which we may not witness very often, but it exists. We must come to terms with the fact that everyone suffers. No one was spared the agonizing suffering. We are all shattered, made up of diverse losses but sorrows that are all the same.
