Empathy Response

If I were to be in someone's shoes I would pick Hayley Wickeenheiser because I would love to be on the Canadian Womans Hockey team as a Professional Athlete. I think it would be awesome just to be able to play at the Winter Olympics, and come home with 4 Gold medals. What a dream that would be! To be able to walk out of the house and have people come up to you and say "OMG are you Hayley Wickenheiser? The Greatest Woman Hockey Player in the World?" I would smile and proudly say, "Well Yes I Am!" I love playing Hockey just as much as Hayley, and I think she is a great role model for female hockey players, as she never gave up on her dream to score big!

About Empathy
I think Empathy is about putting yourself in someone shoes. Empathy is when you think of other people for example take someone who lives in Iraq they are living in poverty, you have to think about how they feel. I think it would be pretty sad to be living in poverty. It is also about stepping out of your own little universe and not thinking about yourself for a change. If you are a person being bullied by someone you would have to think about how there life is like and maybe there life is not to well and they take there anger out on you that is probably why bullies bully you. WE DAY is a day when you think about other people, in poverty and see what life would be like for them, I bet it would suck to live in povertybecause people die of starvation,no clean water to drink, some kids live with out parents because of wars in there country, and people dieing from desases that can not be cured. That is what I thinh Empathy is about.

As a human i have many questions about many things, one of them is why as a species that is said to be smart, meaning we have a grate ability to understand our feelings and others feelings and yet we can not understand that there is pain and fear in the life's of other species other then ourselves,we are all animals,we all are made of atoms and therefor meat, yet cannibals are not allowed to eat humans, and if a hungry lion ate a person it would be killed, but its fine to kill animals for human consumption . I cant understand what draws people into the slaughter jobs i tried to empathize and put myself in to there shoes and this is what i thought of..... maybe it is a case of job shortages,or maybe there are good pay rates, maybe it is a religion like the one that Amish have. they believe that animal have no spirits or soles and feelings, some believe that there here for our use only (witch i DONT believe but i did not wright there bible!) that was all could think of other the thirst to kill witch seems more real then the other ideas !! it was easy to go to the shoes of the pigs, chickens, cows,horses and even dogs that go to slaughter but i thought i would try this.
