It’s time to re think empathy.

(from Harry’s POV)

Sometimes I feel people get empathy all wrong.

No, I do get the gesture and the intention behind it and everything.

But I think to myself, is that empathy really necessary?

Calling someone/something else crazy in front of me so that I feel better about myself? I mean when you think about it, is it really necessary?

Is it the right kinda empathy?

If you ask me, I would say no.

I don’t need it.

I might have expressed it many times before too, but it all gets lost in the void, I’m afraid.

Because when 10 people do it around me, their voices get muted and I only hear the word crazy repeated 10 times.

I just want people to be their regular self around me. That’s all.

Yes, that’s all.

I don’t think I want to hear them call someone else crazy.

Showing love is appreciated, yes. I’m forever grateful for it.

But maybe I don’t want everything to be about something I said or did.

I would like to hear about other people too.

I would like to hear your story too, you know?
