Being empathic is so much a part of everyday discourse-popular singers warble platitudes about being in the other's skin, walking in the other's moccasins-that we tend to forget the complexity of the process. It is extraordinarily difficult to know really what the other feels; far too often we project our own feelings onto the other.
