Empathy Our understanding of what is depends on how deeply we feel. Toward the close of Yom Kippur, a rabbi conducted an appeal for funds for the needy. This was a day on which congregants observed a 24-hour deprivation of food and water. Now that you are hungry, he said, you can better appreciate needs of those who have no food and contribute accordingly. To deal fairly and justly with people, we must empathize with them. It is this empathy that enables one addict to help another. The same empathy should operate among all humans, addicted or non-addicted.
