Sonder : “The realization that each random passerby is living a life as vivid and complex as your own. An awareness of others entails various abilities, but ‘perspective-taking’ is vital. The skills behind this process involve empathy, compassion, and others (e.g., perspective-taking and mentalizing). Acknowledging the complexity of each individual’s life is putting yourself in their shoes. This lies at the heart of empathy which is crucial to good social skills. Empathy is also associated with personal well-being. Similarly, compassion has a positive association with psychological health.”
