A CUP OF YOUR LOVE

Empathy, compassion and emotional rapport can be your strongest virtues. However, not many people are ready to merge the way you are. Learn to recognize and respect other peoples' boundaries. Because of your constant awareness of other peoples' emotions, you need to insure your privacy and to practice some form of daily prayer or meditation.
