It's just built-in, caring about others.
Here's the "strangeness" that will put some people off:
I sense others' emotional states just by being near them. It's called being a sensitive. I feel their pains and best, their joys. I don't even need to see them to know what's there. It's a very accurate "gift." I quotated that because it's very distressful most times, feeling their states. Most people spend most of their lives in pain. I am also gifted with the ability to draw people out, them revealing what's inside their shells. I already know how you're doing if I'm anywhere near you. Nobody has been able to hide it, ever since it started in January. It's always spot on. I only wish I could selectively turn it off, but sometimes, during celebrations, as few as there are, it's awesome to feel everyone all at once. It makes savasana absolutely amazing. But, my own states I get to feel in magnitudes greater. I feel my own pain much more that I think I should. It's a cycling loop. However joys are so much stronger too
