Civic education, ethics, morals and values are currently debated topics at all levels of world events. Some people have fallen into the practice of disappointment and pessimism, because it seems that selfishness and lack of understanding towards others are considered values to survive. We are living times in which the ethics of anything goes, I do not care about my fellow man and I do not care what others are going through as long as I am well; These are very difficult times in society where the only thing that seems to solve the situation is to practice empathy

Fostering empathy in the first years of life in our children is a way to have a better society and a better world. How much empathy is needed in the world!

Empathy is the ability of a person to put themselves in the shoes of another and better understand their actions, behaviors and thoughts. You are not born being empathetic, but rather it is something that develops throughout a person's life.

Empathy, broadly speaking, is the ability of a person to put himself in the place of another. That is, being able to understand the situation and the feelings that another person is experiencing. Being an empathetic person is not an easy task and, in many cases, requires a series of preconditions.
(Global psychology)

The practice of empathy can change the world is a hope for all those who hope to receive affection and a helping hand when they feel lonely and rejected

The importance of empathy in the transformational change of society is vital to be able to understand those who go through difficult times and put ourselves in their place and be able to bring the necessary help to those people who are around us and who truly need to be understood in order to to be able to help you

Empathy is a value given by God and it is one of the most important competencies that are included in emotional intelligence. For this reason we can ensure that empathy is a psychological phenomenon that goes beyond the ability to put oneself in someone else's shoes. It is a sublime and beautiful act!

When a person is empathetic, they have a great privilege, a beautiful gift that precisely in the times that we are living has disappeared since there are few who today can put themselves in the place of the other or reflect on the intrinsic and emotional problems that people live, someone who is empathetic is a person susceptible to the problems of others someone who feels sorry and feels a feeling of love to help as much as possible those people who go through difficult times and emotional crises even when we do not have the same ideas or opinions and we disagree with their reactions

The moments that we live today are hard and incomprehensible for many; where everyone is looking for a way to survive and does not even feel sorry for the pain of others and many people see very normal things that hurt an empathic heart a lot

The bible argues that Jesus Christ was the most empathetic man in history and practiced love, mercy and compassion with everyone

Matthew 9:36
And seeing the crowds, he had compassion on them, because they were distressed and downcast like sheep without a shepherd.
(RVR1960)

Dear brothers and friends; This is the world, people that you can see today as a addicted or a drug addict or someone who suffers from anxiety, stress, hunger or any need that you and me need, they need to understand each other even if we do not understand many things or agree with their behavior. We must practice the love of God and understand that through them Jesus Christ came to this world to save what was lost and to reach out to the needy

We need to put ourselves in the place of others
