Empathy Overload
I am saddened by the world around me. I feel pain for animals suffering , injustice to the innocent , ect. It’s such a wide scope with all that’s going on in the world.
Maybe I feel like I am not making a difference or impact? I am exhausted after work and then feel guilt for not living life as an adventure. I am feeling the work till you die is life’s motto- save money to retire, put kids thru college , ect.. there has to be more to life right?
I have an amazing and supportive spouse and kids..
But my heart hurts and I don’t know how to heal it… am I alone ? Is this an unspoken feeling in today’s world ?
