I wish this weren’t true, but it is. Hopefully those of us with empathy are still the majority.

You have hit the nail on the head, Pam. Most people remain inside their bubble and refuse to look outside of it, that way they don’t have to get involved. It’s very sad.

Most days it does feel that way, and it worries me because empathy is what stands between us and evil.
