Wise Turtle of Sophia Lake, talk about Empathy.

 

 

 

 

And O. Turtle answered:

Empathy is the glue that holds society together. The purpose of society is to make life better by working together and helping each other out when in trouble. It is Empathy that makes families good families. Empathy is defined as “the ability to understand and share the feelings of another.”

The lack of empathy is evilness. Empathy is on a scale from love and caring to uncaring and evil. People totally devoid of empathy are called psychopaths, and people with total pure love are called empathic, and have the ability take on other’s feeling and even take the pain of others away. Where most people don’t believe that there are true empathic, I believe it is real. Most people are somewhere between these two extremes.
