I’ve always been told I am a rather empathetic person. I can read people very easily, I can feel what they are feeling, and I can say things in a way that they can understand. It’s a gift I’ve always had. Which is why I’d always be confused when I’d meet people who seem to exhibit no empathy.
Empathy = Vulnerability + Mindfulness

I feel the same and sometimes feel hard to understand, why I give more then I received. And having this ability can be exhausting sometimes when you are surrounded by negative/sad people.. But, I recently discover, that the only way to protect yourself, is only put some limits. I sended love to them.. but often be exhausted emotionally and understand why now. Putting, some limits of your capacity to give, is also a gift. And being in a state of awareness and mindfulness, can only give you the ability to love more, to be kind and empathic to others, in my point of view. Even, those who are very sadly in their lives!
