Simplified Meaning:
When someone is hurt or going through a tough time, it's important to try and understand their pain by putting yourself in their shoes. Imagine your friend feels lonely because they are new to town and haven't made any friends yet. Instead of just asking them how they feel, think about how you would feel if you were in their place, without friends and feeling isolated. This can help you really connect with their feelings and show them more empathy. By doing this, you can offer better support, like inviting them to hang out or introducing them to others. This way, you are not just listening to their problems but also trying to feel and understand their emotions deeply.
