This shared experience can provide comfort and a sense of connection. The poet emphasizes that we are part of a larger human community.

Activity 2
♦ ‘The whole world shares your tears.’
What does the expression ‘share your tears’ mean?
Do you find comfort when you share your tears with others? Share your experience in the class.

The expression "share your tears" means that others understand and empathize with your pain and sorrow. It suggests that your feelings are not isolated and that many people around the world experience similar emotions. This shared understanding can create a sense of connection and solidarity.

"When I was feeling really sad because my best friend moved away, I shared my feelings with my classmates. At first, I was nervous, but then I realized that some of them had also experienced similar situations. They told me about their own stories and how they coped with it. It made me feel better knowing that I wasn't the only one going through this. We even decided to write letters to our friends who had moved away, which helped us stay connected and feel less lonely."

Sharing experiences can help us feel understood and supported. It reminds us that we are not alone in our feelings.

• "Life Is A Tall, Tender Tree"
by Dr. Debasish Mridha
For if life is a tall tender tree,
For then, life is joy, life is free.
The tree is dancing in the air, sunny or showers,
With his joy, with his love, with his flowers.

• A Confession To A Friend In Trouble
by Thomas Hardy
YOUR troubles shrink not, though I feel them less
Here, far away, than when I tarried near;
I even smile old smiles--with listlessness--
Yet smiles they are, not ghastly mockeries mere.

• "Friendship" by Kahlil Gibran
