The realization that there aren't any main characters in the world and everyone has a complex life, thoughts, crushes, relatives, dreams and mind just as your own.

Essentially whilst you're the main character in your life, you're also a background character in someone else's.
The knowledge that both I and you reading this are actual people like the remaining 8 billion of us is making sonder hit me like a truck.

The Silicon Valley/ Seattle based soy latte drinking hipster you see at the coffee shop, coding NodeJS on his macbook pro. He only uses a bloated IDE and is too beta to ever touch Vim. This creature will justify his use of a macbook by saying that "it's UNIX based" but at the same time will defend not having a linux machine due to some nonsense reason. GUI everything; it makes him feel safe. #1 aspiration in life is to work for FAANG and will consume any disgusting product or service they sell.
Chad: "August became an IOS soydev because it was hype job title rather than actually being interested in technology."

Sonder is the realization that everybody around you, even strangers, are living a life just as complex as yours. Sometimes your hurting so bad and you feel your the only one. But after all your hardships you start to realize that everybody is so unique and you aren't the only one. Everybody lives are so indescribably different and there is no way you will ever understand their lives. To sum it up you are realizing that your not the only one living with such chaos and complexity. All people lives are unique, strange, chaotic, and complex, just like yours. Your not alone.
I lay in bed so deep in my thoughts, the darkness was all around me while, slowly, the sonder started to kick in. I then realized that not only me, but all seven point fifty three billion people in this world which they are constantly living despite my personal lack of awareness of it.
