'We're all just a missed paycheck away': Empathetic social worker finds a squatter living in their crawlspace, they shock the neighborhood by helping the homeless person get back on their feet
Empaths are built different. Empathetic people see a bird with a broken wing on the sidewalk and they risk avian flu, skin scabies, or a peck to the eyeball to scoop it up and save it. They see a living thing in need, desperate for their assistance, and they don't hesitate to take action. Like the social worker in this next story who shocked the neighborhood when she went out of her way to help a downtrodden fellow human being who was not only trespassing but invading her home.
For most of us, finding out that there's a person living in our crawlspace under our home is an unsettling thought. In a lot of states in the US, just the idea of another person camping out on your land is enough to earn a vicious reminder about the 14th Amendment's property rights. But this woman not only found a squatter on her premises but living–rather, camping–underneath her house, and instead of freaking out and being reactive, she showed that we could all do better to help out our fellow humans. As all empaths would, this woman didn't retaliate with violence or fear, but she responded in kindness, helping the person get back on their feet instead of shooing them away.
Read on for the heartwarming story of human empathy that can remind us all that we're all just humans living on this rock in space together–what do we have to lose by being kind?
