Is there a word for that feeling of suddenly becoming very lucid and being very aware of your surroundings and that every living human being is alive?
If there is such a word, as the joke goes, it’s probably going to be a German style portmanteau.
There is! It’s “sonder” (I love this concept)
“The realization that each random passerby is living a life as vivid and complex as your own”
