I read something that stuck with me. It said, “It’s strange having to explain to someone why what they did was inconsiderate. If they didn’t feel it was wrong while doing it, what can you really say?” And that’s the truth. When empathy is naturally in you, you don’t need reminders. You move with care automatically. If it would bother you, you wouldn’t do it to someone you value. Having to break down basic awareness is draining, because genuine consideration dosen’t need to be taught; it shows up on its own.

This makes so much sense to me. I’m finding that people who lack empathy, and an interest/ability in accountability and the necessary clearing of conflict make relationships pretty tough. It’s a no thank you, frankly. Just sayin’ ;) Hugs and good luck. XO
