the pain of others

My heart hurts the most whenever I hear of quarrels between couples, especially of those people who are close and dear to me. Gosh, my heart just bleeds for them. I just wish I could alleviate their pain in some way or another. I don't know why I feel this way either, especially since I'm not involved in it at all. But I guess I emphatise perfectly why emotional pain is one of the greatest sufferings one can undergo. The tears, the sorrow, the anguish, the pain... I just hate to see it happening to the people I love. All I can do now is pray for them, and if they allow me, to listen to them too, and offer comfort and penny's worth of advice. Sigh.
