So many human capacities need to be strained and developed just like muscles. If you've never smelled different flowers and figured out how to notice their differences, you just live with sucky olfaction. If you've never had a safe way to taste the bitterness of grief and process it, then the first time you lose someone for real you don't have that emotional muscle to actually grieve and move on. Stories like this have the power to humanize us on a subtle but crucial level.
