Sympathy and Compassion

Sympathy involves caring about others. This enables you to relate to their experiences in a way that is meaningful. Your warmth comes across and even though you may not have had the same experience, the person feels understood. You may not know how to make a difference, but your caring shines through. You let the person know that he/she is not alone. Compassion makes a difference.
