Empathy is being able to feel the feelings of others with your heart .
Suppose you see a disabled person on the street, you feel pity for him, how helpless the person is. Or seeing him you felt that these limitations were in yourself? Your heart trembled at the thought. Your heart is filled with gratitude to the Creator for being healthy.
This is 'empathy' when you put yourself in the place of a person with a disability and you feel moved.
Suppose one of your friends is unable to concentrate on his studies due to family conflict, his parents are getting divorced. Seeing this made you sympathize with him. You went to comfort him or ask some questions out of your curiosity.
But if you put yourself in his place and think about what he is going through. Then you will see that your conversation with him will change. You'll realize that the words you were about to say in an attempt to empathize actually added more salt to his thorny wound.
Empathy teaches you to see an event from a different point of view.
When you are a teacher, you come out of the class with lectures like yours, you are very upset about why the students are not studying properly, not paying attention in your class.

They should be broken down and simplified, taught with funny examples so that they don't bore them.
When you are fed up with the precociousness of the newlyweds. Are you wondering what's wrong with posting pictures on Facebook all day? But if you look at it from their point of view, you will understand that your 15 years married mind is not the same as their newly married mind.
You are annoyed when your senior citizen talks too much. If you pay attention, you will see that you talk twice as much with your friends throughout the day. And he doesn't have anyone else to talk to except you and two others, so it seems like he talks a lot.

The number of your friends will increase, you will have them by your side in times of danger
It will be both good for oneself and good for others.
