Seeing the visual depiction of the box within a box model triggered a thought I have often. How much of what I experience is shared by others? I know that everyone's brain is unique, and everyone has different pathways and webs of neurons. When watching an upsetting scene in a movie, are there any two people experiencing the same kind of sadness? What does it mean when you "connect" with someone? What about when you have the same thought at the same time as someone else? At a different time? Do you have similar pathways? How similar can two brains get?
