Sonderance

A complex state of lucidity and being, more complex than the already existing word "Sonder". To be bewildered by seemingly mundane things, to be the observer of your own reality while understanding and consciously aware of just how complex other people's lives really are. Sonderance may also mean; to be in a trance like meditative state of unity and deeper connection to the universe surrounding you or I. Think "Ego Death" in a way.
There's Sonderance in this...the way the world works, the way life just goes, it's beautiful, isn't it? It's complex and confusing, but we all come from the same place at the end of the day.
