Why Empathy?
BY DEFINITION, EMPATHY IS "THE ABILITY TO UNDERSTAND WHAT SOMEONE IS FEELING."
"It means being able to understand the many sides of today’s complex problems and being able to collaborate with others to solve them; it means being as good at listening to the ideas of others as articulating your own; it means being able to lead a team one day, and participate as a team member the next." With bullying being such a major problem in schools and online, it is important for our generation to understand how and why it should be prevented. By having empathy for others, we can create a brighter future for the world.
Make a Change!Everyday is a new beginning and fresh start to try and make a change! There will be numerous projects and events to come, but that doesn't mean there isn't something you can do right now! Acts of empathy can be big or small. You could make a donation to an organization, stand up for a friend that's being bullied at school, or even start a fundraiser for a good cause! All in all, there are so many amazing things you can do to show that you care about those around you. Making a change in this world is essentially empathy in action! Let's do this together! #EmpathyStartsNow |
