Keep Your Shoes

Eric's Post
 
Keep Your Shoes
 
When we imagine ourselves
In someone's shoes
We have empathy
 
Empathy is a good thing
It helps us understand
And feel for others
 
Some people though
Lose their shoes when they
Walk in the shoes of others
 
Keep your shoes
Live with compassion
For yourself and others
 
Sensivity to others, their needs, their ways, their values is an important part of connecting with others. It helps us respect them and treat them with dignity. However, as we become sensitive to others it is also important that we remain sensitive to ourselves, our needs, our values, our belief systems, so we don't get lost in our lives. Compassion for ourself and others is a humane path for all of us.
