We perceive by making distinctions.
And the more distinctions, the more we see.
And if we don't learn new distinctions, we blind ourselves.
The distinction between sympathy and empathy is more than 3,000 years old.
It is well worth learning.
But there is enormous resistance.
So it is the resistance that is most important.
What is the resistance?
I make a guess that in some cases it is a sense of false pride. Fear underlying it.
