"A soul that carries empathy
is a soul that has survived
enormous pain." ~A. Shea
I've enjoyed author and poet
A. Shea forever and a day,
but with these words, I am
at her feet!
We've all known people who
are especially kind and loving . . .
hence the term, empathetic!
Truly, it's all about having been
there, done that and getting it!
I understand that the opposite
is also true. There are those
whose sufferings takes them
into the realm of anger, a rage
so prevalent they can barely
cope, thus taking it out against
one and all.
I find myself in awe of those
who choose empathy over
anger.
May we all . . . to whatever
extent we can . . .
empathy -
the ability to understand and
share the feelings of another.
