There are people that find studying the human mind fascinating. Why do some people feel things differently, why do we think differently? What makes our emotions rise, what makes us sad, and why? The type of person you are plays a big part in your life and where life leads you. Therapists and counselors among other people have the 'skill' of empathy. In graduate programs it is spoken about as a skill. I see it differently. Empathy is apart of who you are. Not everyone can be empathetic towards others. It can be difficult and even mentally and emotionally draining but hear me when I say empathy helps make the world go round. People who feel for other people and want to help them. People who try to understand what others are going through and reach out to them. Lately, I have seen and heard people who are greedy and selfish. We can all indulge in life's beauty and blessings every now and again but to have such arrogance is disheartening. What happened to humanity? Is it strictly survival of the fittest, every man for themselves? What happened to feeling for the next person and being there for our neighbors? Have people become so condescending to not reach a hand out to someone who has fallen? Have they for some reason become so bitter and jaded to knowingly turn their back on their own kind?
Life is not an easy road. We all have a beating heart and a soul, lets not forget our humanity...
