Correct... sometimes it is not that we don't have sympathy. Sympathy is good, but we must temper it with pragmatism. There is only so much you can do, and it may not turn out well.
I forgot which Samster said this, but I hold this quote close to my heart. "Heroes die first". It is good to help somebody, but it is equally important to measure your own worth and understand how much difference you could actually make.
You made your choice, and whether right or wrong, what's done is done. A sad story remains just a sad story. Interesting tale, thanks for telling.
