Our situation on this earth seems strange. Every one of us appears here, involuntarily and uninvited, for a short stay, without knowing the why and the wherefore. In our daily lives we feel only that man is here for the sake of others, for those whom we love and for many other beings whose fate is connected with our own.
[Seltsam erscheint unsere Lage auf dieser Erde. Jeder von uns erscheint da unfreiwillig und ungebeten zu kurzem Aufenthalt, ohne zu wissen, warum und wozu. Im täglichen Leben fühlen wir nur, dass der Mensch um anderer willen da ist, solcher, die wir lieben, und zahlreicher anderer, ihm Schicksalsverbundener Wesen.]Albert Einstein (1879–1955) German-American physicist

Sympathy vs. Empathy
For some maybe it's only semantics, and others may not care about either or know the difference.
But in #psychotherapy and human relationships, there is a distinction.
Anyway, this is from a colleague/friend (from Russia) who travels the world (on a Genius grant) as performer and director of the International Playback Theater
I can't translate her cartoon; Maybe someone can?

One of my missions in life is to bring people comfort. It is with great honor I offer GRIEF work. I can CUSTOMIZE anything for you. It's not easy work and I hear so many touching stories. Most make me cry. But it's something I am called to do.
