strength as a weakness


Empathy
Originally uploaded by Pink Sherbet Photography

when my friends hurt,
i hurt.

it hurts even more
when i have no way
to help.

i relate to their pain
or whatever it may be
that my be troublesome
i may not necessarily
fully agree or understand
the full extent of the situation
but...

if they hurt. so do i.

why is that?
what's the purpose of me
having the ability to do that?

It allows you to be more genuine and urges you to act upon the pain that person is feeling, in order to help them through it. I definitely appreciate it and hope to be able to hang out with you soon!!
