About This Quote
This quotation is about the power of sympathy. It’s one thing to empathize with someone who has experienced the worst things in life, but it’s another thing to get bogged down in their problems. That’s not to say that you shouldn’t try to help the person; it’s to say that you shouldn’t dwell on what they are going through or feel sorry for them. It might not be fair, but it is what it is. And anyway, there are plenty of people out there who have lived through worse situations than this person is in.
