Next time you say “I have nothing incommon with this person,” remember that you have a great deal in common: A few yearsfrom now – two years or seventy years, it doesn’t make much difference – both of you willhave become rotting corpses, then piles of dust, then nothing at all. This is a sobering andhumbling realization that leaves little room for pride. Is this a negative thought? No, it is a fact. Why close your eyes to it? In that sense, there is total equality between you and everyother creature.
