"共感とは単に聞くこと、空間を保つこと、判断を保留することです"

Simplified Meaning:
Empathy means being there for someone without jumping to conclusions or telling them what to do. Imagine your friend is upset because they lost their job. Instead of giving advice or saying it’s not a big deal, you just sit with them, listen to their feelings, and show that you care. You don’t judge them or tell them what they did wrong. You just let them feel whatever they’re feeling. This makes your friend feel understood and supported, which can be more helpful than any advice you could give. By doing this, you're creating a safe space where they can express themselves openly.
