EMPATHY.............

Why suddenly i wanna talk about EMPATHY... (pelikkan???... cam tak interesting je...)
what does it mean???



"Empathy is the lovefire of sweet remembrance and shared understanding."






It's kinda hard to define the word, but to make it easy and simple is putting urself in anothers's shoes, be it your friends, parents, colleagues, your patients or your clients....

How do we do that????


some people think they have this empathy inside them.... but most of us naturally and some might forcefully only have sympathy towards others...


To show empathy is to identify with another's feelings. It is to emotionally put yourself in the place of another. The ability to empathize is directly dependent on your ability to feel your own feelings and identify them.





Why do we fail to empathize???


It's because u never experience such feeling, u failed and maybe u never try to relate yourself with that particular person....

If you have never felt a certain feeling, it will be hard for you to understand how another person is feeling. This holds equally true for pleasure and pain. If, for example, you have never put your hand in a flame, you will not know the pain of fire. If you have not experienced sexual passion, you will not understand its power. Similarly, if you have never felt rebellious or defiant, you will not understand those feelings.



so .... What are we going to do???
Is empathy so important in life???


The answer is................. YEs.. YeS... and YESSS!!!




Then, how do we show our empathy???

there's no way people can teach us.... we have to figure it out ourselves....
maybe more care towards your loved one???
maybe a social visit to rumah kebajikan/ rumah org tua....
maybe....
maybe....
maybe....


definitely maybe u'll become beautiful lovers and empathy towards all....
and interestingly, u'll find the true happiness behind the empathy.....
