    excellent explanation on differences between empathy and sympathy

    I really like this animation. I like how she explained that empathy is a choice. Therefore everyone is capable of achieving connection. In a perfect world everyone would practice this and not be so judgmental. Thank you for sharing this, I am now watching the other RSA shorts. these videos are...

    Where did your family immigrate from?

    Both my parents immigrated from the Philippines for work and opportunity. Philippines is a third world country and having the chance to get your green card is tough. Once they got the chance, they went for it. I am a first generation American-Filipino, the ONLY one that can't speak or understand...

    Newbie...not HoH but Interested

    Staaaay. Please. As for figuring online social clues, that is everyones weakness because you can't read emotion and expression through a monitor. Nobody is offended we are trying to explain the differences of apples and oranges as a LANGUAGE. We are only trying to shed light to this. I was...

    Newbie...not HoH but Interested

    Ok, I was going to let this thread take its course and see what happens, but I feel compelled to put my 2 cents in. . . Here it goes. . .

    Greetings from NOT the sunny part of Cali.

    well, its impossible to go Paul Walker fast down that street. There is always tourists there. I guess I should correct myself, not the fastest but most "thilling" you can possibly go without hurting anyone is 10 miles per hour and still get a good whip lash from the turns. oh lucky. Did you...

    CA bus crash kills 9 students injuries over 30

    Saw it on the news and it was tragic. I once lost a classmate my senior year in HS. My whole class was devastated and graduation was bittersweet. Now the thought of 9 students GONE. its heartbreaking. The class will grieve for a long time and parents even longer.
