Empathy has been an emotion I have not thought about most of my life. I guess I never really found it incredibly important. Love, happiness, and hope resemble my positive emotions and thoughts, but empathy was never really part of my conscious system.

It became part of my daily thoughts after a job training I had some weeks ago about the importance of feeling empathy while doing my job. After this, I had to find a book and read it as fast as possible to share my takeaways with you. …
