sad part is...
... we all start with pretty good "EQ"
so natural as a child to feel the emotions of others

but for so many, it is quashed, smothered, ridiculed, as a form of Weakness

I was lucky, and never let go of mine
now I find so many overwhelmed by the emotions of others, panicked, "AM I losing my mind?"

So I try to help
once free of restraint? many things are possible
but it DOES take practice
