RE: You Have Been Doing It All Wrong, It's Empathy Not Sympathy.
At one point I read something like sympathy was a very low quality copy of empathy.
Much has been talked about this term and is that little by little we have realized that feeling empathy for other people apart from contributing to alleviate the discomfort them that may be going through will help us develop the so-called Emotional Intelligence.
It not only involves imagining how them feel or feel bad for the individual who suffers, it is more to know, understand, identify and not solve problems but to provide support and tools that allow you to deal with that situation.
Good post!
That's exactly right. We need to alleviate others pain in order solve problems.
