Outside a courthouse, women gathered to defend a mother who strangled her own three children, and I could not stop asking what that revealed about empathy itself. Over empathy can block natural consequences, a kind of codependency wearing empathy's clothes. Real emotional intelligence means holding more than one truth at once. That wider way of caring, without losing yourself inside it, is the kind of empathy I want for all of us.
