I am weak in many areas, but empathy is one place I have a very high stat- sometimes even too high. If you're at all interested in meditation, try out a loving-kindness meditation sometime. The first time I ever did it, literally I felt so amazing that it was better than any drug on planet Earth. Truly an immense feeling and way to build empathy..

First, think of someone you absolutely love 100%. Your Mom, your child, your dog, anyone that you love completely unconditionally. Focus on how much you truly just want them to be happy, you don't want them to suffer, you genuinely just love them entirely. This will fill you with positive feelings of loving kindness.

Once those positive feelings start to build, next think of someone you're neutral about. Also wish them loving-kindness, as you know that someone out there (their mom, their child) feels about them the way you feel about your person.

Next, move onto yourself. Picture yourself in your best moments. Picture yourself trying to help others, or going out of your way to be kind. Wish yourself love and kindness.

Finally, your feelings of loving kindness will be immense inside of you. At this point, finally think of someone you truly hate, and send loving kindness to them. Because they, like you and those you love, are only human. Though they have chosen a wicked path, you pray and hope they can change their ways.

They do make it difficult don’t they? I will rejoice the day they go down but I will pray for their souls. God is the final judge and jury.
