Many times we go through life without seeing who feels good or not, we do not perceive that sadness in someone else, perhaps many of you think that each one carries their own evil, each one has their own problems ... But, if only If you had a little empathy , everything would change...
Yesterday I could see the sadness in an older adult, I could see that his thoughts were far away, he was thoughtful and I decided to get closer, not to ask him about his "problem" (although he told me that he was very thoughtful, he was like wanting to talk), but i told him to take his phone and check instagram, in the reels we started to see funny videos and i could see the immediate change in him ðŸ¤ðŸ˜Œ..
Maybe you thought it was better to talk about the problem, so he can get it off his chest, or something similar, but I actually feel that talking about our problems with someone else can stir those negative feelings in us, especially when the people we tell them to they do not have a precise solution on their hands.
From afar I could see how his countenance had changed, he was smiling at these videos, his mood change was notorious.
And there was no need for some type of psychology study, I think it's about common sense, something sensitive to others!!!
If you could only have some empathy for those around you, this can change lives, it's not just sitting down and listening to other people's problems, which sometimes burdens us with more problems (and I think it's enough to ours) but if we can make you smile, and we can make a difference, then it will be fine.
Put bitterness aside, it doesn't take you to any good place, being empathetic with others doesn't solve your problems, but it gives you peace of mind, and that changes the perspective of everything, and perhaps YOUR GOOD HUMOR can solve your problems too, giving you ideas to solve them. So what could be beneficial for someone else (empathy) can be beneficial for you too and we would all be winning!!
Be empathetic and smile at life, God bless you!!!!
