Empathy not Empty






Have you ever put yourself in someone else's shoes? 
Means that, have you ever imagine what if you were in their position?
When our best-friends come to us, and we keep listening their stories, sometimes our mind is bringing ourselves to feel what they feel. At least we try, right?
Feeling the empathy is the best thing people can do to someone else, even if we don't really understand how it feels but we always want to make them feel better so then they don't have to feel alone.It is a good start to build a new friendship. Sometimes, someone would be more open minded by feeling the empathy.

Empathy is different with understanding. Feeling empathy, you have a willingness to help that person, always try to be in their side, and blurring the line between you and them. We don't have to say much, just giving them our warm sight and sincere hug would be make them feel better. 
Understanding, we only want to know the story, which is really not bothering our life. We just want to know their reason why they have blue days.

But, what if we feel the empathy to someone that obviously hate us? In this case, it's not wrong at all. We can figure out what makes them like that, and the other best thing is we keep praying for her/him.
