Determined

Empathy to another can be given.
And it is recommended,
When that need becomes obvious.
But to addict someone,
With a getting of it like a fix wished...
Is not productive to a wholesomeness,
One who is determined to get it...
Will value this more when discovered,
That the process comes with some pain.
