Loved the way you explained how empathy develops. It's true. I find that I'm more empathetic to people nowadays because I've suffered a lot and know what it's like. It's like lack teaches you the importance of what you lack.

And you're right about how Facebook creates this "reality" we hold on to, as perception becomes reality. Great piece!!

I also loved it when you said that Steemit is or deep thinkers. I completely concur and I feel less alone in this world :) Glad to have read this article! One more thing: you're right. We should find ourselves and our voices and share our thoughts to exchange value. And Steemit is only platform I know to enable this.
