Hello everyone, I’m Samberine Everose and I'm here, one of the regular editors in the Romance/Love Topic of the WDC Newsletter, and just like I've been saying, I will not be tired in expressing my thankfulness to all the beautiful people here in this wonderful community of writers for not only helping us to improve our writings but giving us also encouragement and inspiration every day.
I stumble this good word "empathy" and I think its an ability of humans that we should often express, demonstrate it, reflecting the One who created us. Find out here in my newsletter this week, where my muse will lead me. |

Be Empathetic
I have always been inspired by a phrase I often come across while reading verses in the Bible, particularly regarding humanity and our interconnectedness. This week newsletter, I want to explore this theme in my writing. I'm curious to see where my thoughts will lead me and what insights will be bring out by the end.
Human beings originate from a common root, and we are God's masterpiece, possessing distinctive qualities like our Creator.
In other words, there are strong linkages between humans because, like God, we humans have the ability to love.
Animals can feel the emotion of love towards their owners and can express it in simple ways, but there are limitations.
Unlike humans, who have the potential for limitless possibilities, because we are all masterpieces of God.
I found a word in the dictionary that I think best describes how human connectivity can be expressed, and I know that you often stumble also.
This is the word Empathy in where it is the sense of compassion, discernment, and adjustment to achieve positive outcomes.
Empathy is the ability to understand and share the emotions and perspectives of another person.(from the Google) This ability often develops through our own life experiences, especially during times of hardship. When we empathize with someone, we might remember our own struggles and feel what they are going through.
Another is on the verse that everything comes from God, and He is in control of everything,The Holy Spirit, that is present in every person, allows them to feel compassion for others.
Or this can be a Genetic qualities or traits that can be inherited through our genes. While not everyone possesses this ability, each individual should aspire to develop it.
Emphatetic can be through
1. Listening- By allowing to be active in receiving words, and interpreting it through the emotions of the one who speak.
2. Observing- Analyzing and Sensing its gesture, that sometimes its hard to say it into words.
3. Reading beyond the words.-We can find some hidden emotions within the words of a person.
But, being empathetic can sometimes lead to the perception of someone being a martyr, as those who are empathetic might be taken advantage of due to their compassion. However, we should recognize that this trait is one of the characteristics of God. He grants the ability and empathy to those He blesses and intends to use for His good purpose.
By being empathetic, we can build strong relationships, especially with our loved ones. Empathy allows us to sense and feel what others are experiencing, which enables us to offer the help they need and what is important to them. We all know that humans possess remarkable senses, and we can often read between the lines. However, we sometimes let ignorance and selfishness obstruct this ability.
Imagine how good the world could be if everyone practiced and demonstrated this. We are reflecting and obeying what God always said about whatever we did for the least of our brothers and sisters we did it to Him.(Matthew: 25:40) and the golden rule.
"do unto others as you would have them do unto you".
