You need to see how everyone sees themselves as the ‘chosen one’ (in an indra’s net way). Treating everyone, including yourself, like a chosen hero, is the deadlift for building your empathy muscle.

If you can’t emphathize with whatever group or individual hate, it means your empathy muscle is weak Like a wimpy skinny man.

High empathy people have the most difficult time emphathizing with low empathy people strangely enough.

Until even low empathy people can be loved they will not reach that final gate. Most of us cannot embrace these asymmetrical relationships. They feel toxic. One side only takes.

Having a child bridges this a bit. To have something that only takes yet still lovable.

If you see that child as a soldier. Someone to continue your fight for glory. Then you never learn what unconsitional love is.

God is unconditional love. Traditional families were a great source of this path because of the experiences of relationships with wife, husband, children is a great university to learn the Theory of Unconditional Love.

If understanding quantum mechanics were the pinnacle of intellectual strength. Understanding unconditional love is the pinnacle of empathic strength.
