Compassion, pity, empathy- they don’t come easy to all. Scientifically, the pace of our heartbeat drops when we feel bad for something/someone. Humans are exceptionally expressive. So, feeling some pity or compassion isn’t all that difficult. In fact, not just humans, but even animals are very expressive about how they’re feeling, and we cannot help not smile or feel the “aww.”
These pictures are an example of just that. From dogs who let out a scare on finding out who’s driving the car to them reacting to us leaving them alone by themselves, these twenty pictures cover it all.
