Empathy

[justhoping]

Can a person who shows little to no emotions be trained to develop emotions? I know the military trains our warriors so they are capable to do the job asked of them. Can it go back the other way after 40 to 50 years? Seldom see a smile or tear and little to know understanding.

Hi Justhoping,
 
I wanted to quickly respond to your post.  You wouldn't want to train someone to develop emotions, it has to come from a place of being willing to be vulnerable and take risks.  I highly recommend the TED Talk by Brene Brown on vulnerability at https://www.ted.com/talks/brene_brown_on_vulnerability?language=en.

Hi Just Hoping,

 

(and thank you, Choose Love, for the excellent recommendation.)

 

Your husband can get a miracle, which is what this ministry is all about. That Miracle will come as we help him to focus on loving you, with agape love. As he learns to focus on you and your needs, one day at a time, there will come a day, when "bam" - he and you both suddenly recognize that he has had a breakthrough.

 

That breakthrough does not come as you and he focus on his problem . The breakthrough comes as he focuses on you; your needs, your desires, your feelings. 

 

Please dial in on the group call - and have him along for the ride, and lets get the process started!
