Experiencing empathy.

Empathy is the ability to identify with and understand another person's situation and feelings.
- primarily communicated nonverbally.
- it needs more than an intellectual understanding, it's learned by experience.
- part of emotional intelligence so it should  be "taught" at home and in schools.
