When others share their stories with me, I arrive a little closer to knowing how many parallels we all share - how big this human family is, and that comforts me.

These moments of connection are truly everything we humans seek when life is all boiled down to it's essence. I included the full audio, with the exception of minor edits of extremely personal information, as requested by my subjects. Many of these interviews are told "between the questions" - as is life.
