There are a lot of virtues that people possess without having to learn the skill or a particular habit, but they do this so conveniently that one will think it was an innate ability to do such task. As an individual, there are certain instances in life that I have come to learn some particular things along the line of living my life. But in recent times, there are things in life that you portray from the innermost part of your being these cannot be learned because it's a way of life that allows people to portray humility, kindness, patience, perseverance and so many more.
There are two natural abilities I feel I inhibit because they portray the kind of person I am and makes me feel for other people. In this life, no one person can live in isolation, people need one another in various kind of ways to be able to survive. These abilities are showing empathy for others and caring for people. Caring for people is not a talent or skill that should be taught instead it is an action that people portray via the actions of the heart. These are powerful skills are a necessity in the world that we live in, if you know the things people that are heartless or wicked do to hurt and betray the people around them.
Caring for people can happen in the little things that we do as human beings, sometimes you might not even know that you have shown kindness or love to the other person unless you have been told. It could be by listening to a friend or a stranger open up to you, by giving to those around you who are less privilege and so many more.
In conclusion, caring for my friends and families around me and even for the people who I do not know about, and having sympathy or empathy for people who are judged wrongly and are punished because of the injustice in my country, is something I did not learn.
