Empathy Quiz

The findings from my empathy quiz tell me that I scored a 41. I somewhat agree with the results from this test but feel like my score should have been higher due to the fact that I feel like I care and listen to people more than average person. I didn’t realize that someone can be taught empathy though. It seems that the feelings and thoughts that you are born with are the ones that should stick with you for the rest of your life. A guy from my church is one who I think that always shows empathy in a positive manner. He is constantly there for others to pick them up when they are down or sad. He is a great guy and I hold a lot of respect to him for that reason. I know a lot of people unfortunately who are lacking people. I feel like that is common among people my age. Many people that are my peers only care for their selves and no one else and they do not think before they speak. They usually are disrespectful towards others, are not silent in a moment of silence, and don’t remove their hat during the national anthem or a prayer. Many people these days are disrespectful and don’t care to show sympathy for those who are down in a time of hardships.
