Watch Murray and Mark Ruffalo Explain This Fun Word [VIDEO]

Things related to feelings are always tricky. Sometimes we forget how important it’s to be empathetic, until we are going through a difficult time in our lives. It’s in those moments, where we know how important it’s to actually understand and care about someone else’s feelings, and that’s what empathy is.

When we feel bad about something, we don’t want a person to be sympathetic and say “I’m sorry about it”, we would feel a bit better if we hear “I can imagine what you’re feeling, and I know that it’s not easy”.  Because we want to feel understood and that someone cares about us.

So, Murray and Mark Ruffalo explained the word empathy in a quite easier way, in the video, Mark stubs his toe (ouch!), and of course, he’s feeling awful and Murray shows empathy for him.

It’s that simple to put ourselves in the other’s position to try to understand it a bit more. Empathy is definitely a word that we should add up to our vocabulary, and practice it, this way we could be better humans living in a better world.
