Feeling for Someone Else (Originally Untitled) – Written January 2006 (Aged 30)

Feeling For Someone Else

empathy,
feeling with someone not for someone
a crucial difference
that is sympathy
advanced empathy
the capacity to express the unexpressed
able to understand an individual
in their life situation
able to express what someone is feeling
without being told
that makes us understood
this is vital
for any relationship to form
to grow and evolve
without this, any relationship is lost
or it never starts at all
empathy
feeling with someone not for someone
that is sympathy
empathy is the key to any relationship
