I have learnt about the intentionality behind asking questions such as “how are you doing "..... While I was younger, I didn't see the need; never saw its importance, until my mum began to teach me and let me see the importance. I remember one time I was down (sick), a friend to one of my friends, who I had never spoken with asked me “how is your health? ".. My God! That meant a lot to me... Ever since then, I have taken it upon myself to always check on people, not to show I'm courteous, but to be intentional about it... Sometimes, I may even go as far as asking twice or three times to be really sure the person is fine.
Your post is really enlightening... Hope you are doing good sir?
In reality, it's only when people have gone through pain that they can understand pain. Most people who don't pain can't show empathy towards pain and that's the sad part of the reality. Although I think there are exceptions in lifes.
Your health situation back then made you appreciate and became sensitive towards a lot of things and if not made you wouldn't have.
Most people who go through things learn empathy the hard way .
Exactly.. 💯
