"there is not a person alive who gets to that age who does not have to deal with it at some level" I figure that there are multiple events in everyone's lives

"there is not a person alive who gets to that age who does not have to deal with it at some level" I figure that there are multiple events in everyone's lives like this: quarterlife crisis, midlife crisis, tragedies, deaths of loved ones, broken relationships- these are part of the shared human experience. I occasionally try to remind myself that in all likelihood, I'll have to go through each one of these situations at some point in life. If I mentally prepare for them in the present, it usually doesn't take away the pain when I do find my world turned upside down, but it certainly helps me see the light at the end of the tunnel and think more clearly.
