//The language of empathy\\ We find all the identification we need as we learn to understand and speak the language of empathy. To understand this special language, we listen with our hearts. The language of empathy uses few words; it feels more than it speaks. It doesnt preach or lecture it listens. It can reach out and touch the spirit of another addict without a single spoken word. (The most important tool we use in fighting our disease is empathy: the sense that others understand us in a deep way, and the concern we feel for others that allows us to get out of ourselves and connect to something greater. Empathy means we get each other; we see the hidden darkness and love and hurt, and we understand.L.C.) JUST FOR TODAY: I will listen with my heart. With each passing day, I will become more fluent in the language of empathy.
