empathy is very interesting. since it acts like a double edged sword. a person with empathy can be there for their loved ones. b/c they know that something is wrong. they may not always know what exactly is wrong. but yet its very difficult to focus on ones own feelings. with the feelings of everyone else getting in the way. me and someone i'm close to. were talking about it recently. and it made me realize just how difficult being an empath really is.
my first empathic experience was when I was 3yrs old. I had a dream that my birth father fell of the back of a duece and a half.(military transport truck. for non mil personell)and that his arm was in a sling. I woke up screaming and told my birth mother about it and was slapped in the face for it. but low and behold 15 min later my father walks in the door. and that's exactly what happened
