the struggles of others and can do nothing but cry. I cried so hard last night that I had to hide for almost an hour inside our bathroom and pretend that Im just taking a bath but the truth I was crying from the hurt Im feeling for those innocent victims killed and injured from recent attack in Palestine. I prayed hard for God's mercy to all His people. I questioned Him but still I ended up begging Him for help, to stop His people from harming each other. I had my own troubles in life, big and small but only this time I felt so helpless and incompetent.

Hi, When we hear some news of terrorism or other natural hazards and see many innocent people lose their lives we feel very sad and helpless. We can not do anything for them. We can only pray God for the peace.

I understand what you feel. And that is one reason that I'd rather skip watching the news sometimes coz it is just depressing to see the innocent people not being spared with their lives. I hope and pray, too that this would all soon stop.

Ive seen so many tragic news but I was never been so affected like this before. Maybe because of those killed children I saw. They know nothing..It was just too much for me to comprehend.

You have got to be a very caring person to cry for people you dont know after seeing what they are going through. I have a really hard time with empathy to. I am so empathetic that I listen to others troubles and it brings me down to because I get so emotional.

Im a very emotional person. I would even cry when I see people crying. I dont know, maybe due to many hurt I had in life that I can always relate to other peoples pain.
