Empathy in Action
I believe empathy is a human duty, encouraged by our inherent goodness. Healthy empathy can be a call to action, urging us to perform great acts that alleviate the suffering of the world, not just to relieve personal discomfort.

Empathy is a skill. However, sometimes we might get caught up in ‘distorted empathy,’ dividing empathy into ‘us versus them,’ confined within our own walls. Liking everything about ‘us’ and disliking everything about ‘them’ cannot be considered healthy empathy. With a foundation of goodness and positive thoughts, empathy can grow healthily with common sense and a balanced perspective.
