Empathy

in #life6 years ago

To be able to jump in the shoes of anyone else is such a great idea and exercise that everyone should be forced to do it weekly by governament mandate.
I imagine a way to just transport into someone's life fro 30 minutes and get as much of a personal experience as possible. Random people assigned by chance. Every week.
How would the world be different?

If I had to guess I'd say very differently.
But here's the crazy idea...you don't need ot be forced! You can do this in your own by trying to understand someone else you're talking to by you know..asking and listening.
Or you can read some great first person article.
Or you can just look at HumansOfNY posts and try to see if something clicks.

Ultimately, we all need the empathy of someone. You're not TOO GOOD for this!

What a powerful word but unfortunately I see more and more people who just don’t have a clue what it means or even how it feels like.....

Maybe it's just us getting old or maybe the empathy you are capable now is different from the youth of today. They'll get there!!

I am not sure what’s the reason but there is a nasty bug in our society.
