Empathy is such a strong word. To me personally, its important to have empathy. Its only normal and humane to have empathy, its because we want to feel connected to the people around us I'm pretty sure we don't want to be anti social and just focus on our phones that is quiet emotionless right?
I enjoyed the little chat we had while sitting on the floor with Mr Ezam, i honestly felt that tiny connection with my classmates for the first time in 11 weeks. I really appreciate those kind of things because i love being able to connect to people and feel whatever they are feeling, well thats empathy. I grew up with all kind of people around me, recently my cousin sister who is 5 years older than me was telling her future sister in law about how when both of us were younger she would always look for me when she had a bad day in school or anything she would always share things with me and she was telling her sister in law how much i could understand her and talk sense even though i was 5 years younger than her and she always finds comfort talking to me. It made me feel good knowing that growing up, people all around me are comfortable to talk to me about the things that they are going through. Recently as well someone special told me that after meeting me he actually became more human, he started to show more of his TRUE emotions instead of PRETENDING to be happy just to make people around him happy and also finding happiness by doing that.
