Have u ever heard this word..empathy? Today was a fun, but gave  a damned nite to me at the same time. I was slapped, I was knocked out. Empathy has a greater meaning than I thought before.  I didn’t have any idea how this empathy could make me so confused.

Empathy has many definitions:

1. D. M. Berger: The capacity to know emotionally what another is experiencing from within the frame of reference of that other person, the capacity to sample the feelings of another or to put one’s self in another’s shoes.
2. Jean Decety: A sense of similarity in feelings experienced by the self and the other, without confusion between the two individuals.
3. Nancy Eisenberg: An affective response that stems from the apprehension or comprehension of another’s emotional state or condition, and that is similar to what the other person is feeling or would be expected to feel.
4. R. R. Greenson: To empathize means to share, to experience the feelings of another person.

and many other descriptions and theories..

Never think of judging other’s empathy levels, people have expectation. I’m used to be expected to have greater empathy than before. I did realize how this word just changed my level. Learning ‘why’ and ‘what’ of it has been answered. Learning ‘how’ was easily planned, but hard to achieve recognition. To do the real ‘how’ things becomes a real project.

Empathy is kinda intelligence.. (to be continued)

One day, a friend told me that I was an evening person. I’ve tried to change this way of routine because everyone said it wouldn’t be good for our health. Tonight, for the 1st time I’ve never felt this  glad to be an evening person (I directly stated it on my Facebook account). At 11.30 pm, a friend called me with sad feelings that his little brother was in a critical situation at a hospital. She thanked me so bad that I was awake so she could share what was happening in her family. She said that if I didn’t awake, she didn’t even know to whom she would talk. I actually knew it kinda news from her Facebook account and everyone seemed to comment to show their fellow feelings that I didn’t wanna make one. I’ve never got an idea she would call me on that kinda situation. She really thanked me so bad, and I was just immediately HAPPY to feel this way. We made a brief talk, but lots of meanings to count on. Thank you, dear! I still can’t sleep because of this glad feelings. You can lean on me, you can talk with me, anytime, anyhow, anywhere. Good nite all!! ^^
