“You have stated well in your words and in your emotional expression that you feel abandoned and misunderstood by the men you wished to look up to, that you fear it will be the same with me.”

“You have cut me to the heart! Thank you.”

“You are certainly welcome. It is a privilege to be able to understand you, or, more exactly, to empathize. ‘Sympathy’ is ‘feeling (or suffering) with’ but ‘empathy’ is ‘feeling in’. In other words, all the American professionals have it backwards (not surprising) to consider empathy to infer the maintenance of ego boundaries intact, therefore ‘good’. And I say it is my privilege to have my own attention to your words and action result in my apprehending your “existential” state as if I myself felt it, ‘feeling in’ you, empathizing—and to hell with ‘ego boundaries’. So, you like to read philosophy alone?”
