Life as an Empath is both a gift and a curse depending on your perspective. We have the innate ability to pick up on others emotions without needing to be told what others are feeling. Just from observing your posture, facial expressions, and energy we can sense how you are feeling in the moment. It’s a great gift once you have done the necessary work on your own issues. There is so much love and compassion that we can share with the world.
Learning to be my Authentic Self
My Journey 
I agree that feeling this much and taking in so much all of the time can be a gift, but also a curse, as it’s mentally and emotionally draining. Sometimes I would like to just be oblivious, just for a break.
