the need to be empathetic

in empathetic •  7 years ago 

Many times it happens to us, it has happened to me, that suddenly someone comes with a lot of intention to tell us something that is important to that person, and we do listen to him, and many times we say we understand you, but we do not really understand, and we do not stop Think about how that person really feels.

When someone comes to you, to tell you something that has happened to you, it is because they have this need to be heard. Sometimes we make a mistake and it happens a lot, we have all the good intention of wanting that person to see the things that are positive in his life, to change in some way the way he feels, but we do it in an inappropriate way. Let me explain: If someone comes and tells us, you know? I no longer want to live in my house, everyone treats me badly and I just do not want to stay there anymore. We in a good way, we put the cake to tell him, hey yes it is true, but look, do you know that there are people who live in the street? We should be thankful that at least you have a roof to sleep on. Take advantage of it and do not worry that it will happen ...

And that's how we minimize the problem of a person in seconds and unintentionally, when we feel that something bad is happening to us, does not mean that we forget that others also suffer, but then their pain is less important? Or have to shut up because it will happen? No, it is your pain and it is your moment. That someone is looking for understanding, not a trial, or phrases like "I told you, get out of there" because that person probably wants to get out of there, but does not have the resources. So to contribute something positive for our society and for that someone who at some point appears to look for help, let's be empathic. And let's think how we would feel if we were in that situation, would we have the courage to move forward? It will be easy, difficult? And will we have the same capabilities? It is a matter of thinking about it for a moment and giving a comment that tells that person, that although things are wrong, and we can not change them for the time being, we are here to support it, and have our support for what you want. Many successes and Happy evening! God bless you!
