"Each of us does exist in our own private little reality"

Absolutely. Even nicely described in the B-52's song,
"You're Living In Your Own Private Idaho" (also known as
the ego, or the self-contraction).

"we share events- but imo we never truly share them perfectly, how can we?"

Yes. Because these events are the products of our separated individuality they NEVER absolutely coincide, but can only be shared, in their differentness, via communication in whatever form.

HOWEVER, since separated individualities arise IN Consciousness it is possible to fall into that ONE Consciousness with so-called others. That IS a perfectly shared event, because it is not two or more events, just
ONE. But it is no longer an "experience" of any of the "participants".

I can recommend that as an intensely more satisfying
way to live life than separated individuality. Not that I am in that "space" all the time! But I would like to be!

Namaste!

Jim
