empathy ought to be taught everywhere for all ages in my opinion….

[avery]

lately i’ve learned that i’m an asshole. i’ve thought about my actions in the past and it’s time to change

[kayjohnson]

I felt empathy is something you were born with. I’m a Super Empath. I can feel someone’s pain. I will wake up in the middle of the night & that person is on my heart. I will start praying for them. When Israel was attacked, I cried & cried. I just wanted to take the families, especially the children under my wing. I had no idea someone needed to learn empathy. I seem to pick up on someone’s pain, I’m drawn to them. I’ve been through so much also. A book or movie, as well as music, affects me. Even a cartoon movie brings the tears rolling. I’m a very detailed person as well. Another thing I’ve noticed, I can be out in a store etc, people will start a conversation & pour out their private situations. This just amazes me. I can always relate to them & feel their pain.

Found the visuals a bit distracting but the quality of the content is excellent. Well researched and expressed clearly. I put on my headphones and just paid attention to what was being said rather than the visuals. Thank you for a wonderful video. Will be putting some of these to use that I feel like I have forgotten over time. In a world where being distant is a norm now it takes away from our basic reactions and emotions.

It happens with me that when I talk to someone then I can feel what others may feeling while talking to me and don't know why i get overwhelmed being in a crowed...

[girlfailuresaihara]

thanks, i’m gonna make a playlist with this + other things ive noticed i have a hard time with. i lack empathy and sympathy so i hope this helps

[Abdou_the_honored_one]

I have lack of empathy but I feel it good I mean if someone need help I would because is just the right thing

[kayjohnson]

I feel we should pay attention to our surroundings. A kind word can make all the difference in the world, to someone that is having a ruff day. I feel we are to make a positive difference in another one’s life in any way we possibly can.

[flowerpower]

Yea this was a great video, they owe it to children to teach this at schools, us boomers we're brought up with goodness and understanding and to appreciate people, and always to respect people, loved the video👍👍👍👍👍💯

[vitoponce]

I have depraved myself too much from being empathic...

[kayjohnson]

I also can pick up on someone is not someone you want in your life. Everyone asked me, how did you know he was a scoundrel ? Lol (my daughter’s ex) I couldn’t explain it, I just knew. She wouldn’t listen to me, & he was really bad news. I hadn’t even met him & there was something about the way she talked about him that made me feel, there is something off about this man. As soon as I met him, it was like a neon sign saying BEWARE ! This one is definitely BAD NEWS !!!

[davidberaru]

What if I don’t want to feel someone else’s pain?!

[lienbijs]

I need to have less empathy. I would be much more happy if I didn't feel sad for other people I don't know.

[勒德-xp]

good vedio ❤and can i get the corresponding literature or sources for each suggestion?

[brianraynor]

Do people with high empathy practice what they preach and take these approaches and try to put themselves in a low empaths life. I have seen some truly horrible things said about people with low empathy. I just didn't see how one can you be empathetic only with other empathetic people.

[bestiesquadcoolgirls]

I don't need because I already have an empathy ability

[mdafsarali]

If you want to develop empathy you become like a child ❤

[jmuller]

Soooo be fake to lift others while you burn inside from their EMOTIONAL actions?

[dodahdon]

U said 3n4 to lure people to watch that long then said 10 so that they will endure till the end

[davidberaru]

No1. Most people are boring!
No.2 I ware size 14 shoes so walking in someone else’s shoes hurts too much.
No. 3 I’m the star of my own movie.
No. 4 I read a lot of Science fiction so unless you’re a Kizinti, or Pierson’s Puppeteer, I’m not interested. If literature was so great why did Hemingway and Wolfe both kill themselves? That much empathy I don’t need.
No. 5 After being beaten up by members of other ethnic groups in the past I have little empathy for their entitled complaints.
No. 6 My grandparents spoke in other languages in order to keep the kids from understanding what they were saying.
No. 7 Even my closest friends never reveal what is going on inside them so how would I know?
No. 8 To be vulnerable is to let others hurt you and stab you in the back.
No. 9 Have you really listened to anyone lately? All the Ditto Heads who follow Fox News?
No. 10 I was a classroom teacher for 30 years in Los Angeles. Believe me. I know stress but not bathroom breaks!
No. 11 ( What is this, Spinal Tap?) Most people don’t even know why they are the way they are and certainly don’t want to explain themselves to me.
