Empathy: a mini essay

This mini-essay addresses the fact that empathy is one of the most productive skills to cultivate as a human being. I created this to encourage myself and other to look within ourselves and give ourselves permission to experience the full range of emotions.

I also feel that it is important to give others that space too as long as we are not adversely affected by them. During this pandemic, everyone is dealing with loss and frustration so it feels like an important time to reflect on empathy and how helpful it can be to our mental health and relationships,
