I just realized that if we remove the two letters a and h from the word "Empathy," some letters remain, and the meaning of the word formed by those letters changes.
Eliminating some neighbouring letters (a and h) and bringing the next letters together (e, m, p, t, y), we have a different word- "Empty".
Contemplating this, one realizes this is indeed the case with "empathy" in this world.

I was speaking to a senior researcher some time ago, who discussed about a recent tragedy in our temple city.
The accused of the case is linked to the ruling party of another state as his father belongs to that party.
The researcher even named the persons- the son and the father.
I was not aware of the accused father's name or affiliation.
Hearing the name, I immediately searched on Google. I shared the information that I saw on screen- "MISIDENTIFIED."
The following are the first few results:
"Which is better- the sun or the torch?"
Asked the little kid on that dark night.
"What do you feel? What do you say?"
I asked the kid to share what he felt right.

When I heard this, I wasn't very sure.
The words had been directed at me-
I was at the receiving end directly.
Should I accept the beliefs of that person?
They don't know; just have an impression!
Youth and immaturity go hand-in-hand?
Many feel this is the reality in our land!
