Empathy

"E"motions of another being felt 
"M"elting your heart with compassion 
"P"utting yourself in the shoes of another 
"A"bsorbing ones hurt and pain as your own
"T"enderly showing your kindness and care 
"H"elping them to heal their sadness 
"Y"our understanding let's them know they're not alone
