Walk in someone else’s shoes

Image
Walking in someone else’s shoes mean to almost feel like them at that moment. Empathy is simply listening,holding space without judgment,emotionally connecting,and saying that incredibly healing message”You’re not alone” I needed empathy once when I got my new MRF.My MRF was a very expensive cricket bat.My dad and I were playing in the road/street.My dad hit the ball hit the ball and then and it hit the tip of my bat.And it chipped.I was crying a lot.Then my sister came.She was trying to make me happy.She was bringing me notes and telling me it’s ok.she tried to make me a new one.And then she made me very happy.You can show Empathy by sitting with someone when they are sad.
