RE: Opinions - We need to travel to develop empathy
Yo batz, great post. This is so important for us all to have more empathy and compassion for each other, and also for nature and life in general.
In life I feel we should be a good person and help others because it feels good and right, not just because we are supposed to. We can all be Working together to build each other up and enjoy and praise others success and wellbeing. Never look down on others and always try our best to be the change in the world that we want to see.
There is lots of jealously and unhealthy competitive nature, especially where I am from. Sure it’s inportant to be competitive and strive to be the best you can be, but also through helping others build confidence and rise together.
Thanks for this post again batz, it has refocused me today :) I hope you have a great week!
Also, if you watched the MotoGP yesterday WOW what a race!!! :D
empathy I feel is more valuable than compassion. Compassion often comes across as us feeling sorry for someone. But empathy is more of "I relate to your problem. I am not feeling sorry for you, but I understand your problem and can help if possible"
But yes, we need both, empathy and compassion for nature and people.
I did rather prefer a conducive and learning environment than a competitive environment. It gets toxic pretty fast and takes a toll. In a competitive environment, there's only one winner. In a conducive environment, everyone wins and it creates a better atmosphere to work.
Competition is for sports.
Yup, wouldn't miss the first race of the season. Great race. I knew Marc would do some last lap trick, and Dovi pulled the rabbit out of the hat just when you expected it. 3-0. Good drama. Few more laps and #25 and the Doctor would have been slugging it out as well. I hope this year Vale gets in the mix for the title too, if Yamaha can do some good work!
Some very good points there, I hadn’t really looked at compassion in that way before but you are right. Empathy is important and needed. We all just need to learn to work together and have more love for everyone and everything, it’s easy for people to forget what is truly important.
Awesome I knew you wouldn’t miss it! What a race, I thought Zarco was going to win until he got his rhythm upset. Cruthlow was looking good and fast! If he doesn’t crash much this season, he might be able to make it into the top 3 more often than not I think! So many great riders. Yep #25 was certainly catching! Vale looked strong and was only about 1 second from the front, but I think he pushed a bit too hard on his tyres during the first 10 laps due to starting from 8th. A classic dovi vs Marquez finish! I knew Marc was going to try something, he always does! This season is going to be great, it would be a dream for vale to win his 10th title! Lots of riders look strong, I can’t wait for the next one :)
Agreed.
Vale had only two choices - push for outright speed from the start, or manage tyres and loose speed. He choose option #1 and in his own words "if the tyre starts to loose grip, then that's it. Ciao"
Zarco is fast, but to win on a satellite Yamaha with the likes of Dovi, Marc, Vale all in the mix is quite a mountain to climb.
