Empathy and Compassion are a state of mind

PictureEmpathy and compassion are divine in nature based on love
There are many people in modern society which have been raised with little or no
empathy. The evidence is in the behaviour and attitudes of people as they often ruthlessly trounce one another to get higher on the false ladder of success. Money is a large motivating factor because it has programmed people to lead a life of little compassion and duality.

Empathy needs to be taught from a very young age. This responsibility usually falls to
the parents, and if they do a good job of it, the young people grow up with compassion being a big part of their life; in essence it becomes a state of mind.

What if the parents do not teach this absolutely vital life skill?  

Situations vary from house to house, but many parents simply are tasked with too much in daily life to teach children the right way of living. Many parents are single
and have very little free time to devote to teachings such as this. Society has created this by demanding far too much of people, and the results are painfully clear to see with the problems in the world.

To look for empathy a good place to start is the way a person treats an animal. If
they are loving and kind to an animal, chances are they have developed a compassionate heart. Animals are dear souls as well, and are a large
responsibility for owners because they don’t appear to get past the mentality of a young human and need care all their life, however; even love of animals does not guarantee compassion for people.

There are numerous cultures and backgrounds from which people come. In each belief system, there are mini belief systems on how to succeed in life; included in this is how people have been raised within the walls of their home. If competition is a big factor - and because society is based upon it usually is - this can blind people from their true self and cut off their connection to source.

To get to the top in the business world you need many skills, and empathy is amongst them. Too often it is bypassed and a cut throat environment materializes depending on the culture of the place of work. These types of work places have high turnover rates and depend on inside networking to work towards the upper positions. Even when one reaches the top it usually comes at the cost of health issues, because of the negative energies and extra time spent involved in working in such a place.  Even in this situation, often people will eventually hit a wall and seek employment elsewhere.
Occasionally the people from negative places of work spill out into jobs where there is a cooperative environment; when they do, they become the fly in the ointment and begin to cause stress in the atmosphere. This becomes apparent when situations present themselves and empathy is not a card played; this often results in gossiping, backstabbing, health issues and eventually stress leave. The place of work becomes unfriendly and people start to leave the department one way or the other. The solution to this type of person is love, compassion and empathy, but they have become so bitter and trained in such a manner – both in life and work – they forget who they really are and operate from a position of selfishness.
Life in general displays great examples of empathy and compassion. When people give their time, effort and sometimes even money to help people they don’t even know; it shows love, compassion and empathy to their fellow man.  

To discover empathy in children all one must do is observe their behaviour. If they assist other children and are helpful, they have been raised correctly; however if they bully and pick on other kids, or scream for attention, they are missing a compassionate component which can usually be traced back to the way they have been raised.

People must learn to be of service to others in their own special way; that is what makes everyone beautiful and unique.

Compassion and empathy is for every living entity on the planet
Since empathy is a positive emotion it can negate negative emotions, however; one low emotion which often appears to trump empathy is jealousy. If this happens, one must remember who they really are and where they came from. A spiritual guide book may be necessary for people who place themselves ahead of others for selfish purposes. Jealousy often causes many problems where empathy and compassion provide multiple solutions. For proof look no further than the world in which is manifest at the moment, because it is one based on jealousy
and clearly it is a failing model.
Going forward if empathy is not taught by parents, perhaps it should be a compulsory subject in any future school models; and it should be taught from the very youngest age, as it will make all the difference in the world when the child grows older. This will ensure the success of future generations despite what has been passed down as right or wrong from older generations.  

Be vigilant and cognisant of compassion and empathy in everyday life and the world will be a much better place to live; bringing forth god’s vision of how Gaia will transform to heaven on earth.
