Yeah, like our comrades say, everyone gets that way sometime. It's a sad side-effect from the fact that you have to insulate your mind to stay sane. If you were really to fully reflect on all the fucked up shit in this world--every child who died of starvation, all the rapes and murders, all the people out of work, all the abuse, generally speaking all the tragedy, all the pain, all the victories of evil, you'd just off yourself in 30 seconds flat.

So there's a delicate balance. It's important to empathize with the suffering of others, you lose your humanity if you don't, but you can't take it all in. Love your friend. Wish her a quick recovery, physically and psychologically and be there for her. Don't feel bad about not feeling bad for her at first. Sometimes it just doens't work that way. I mean, obviously you care, or you wouldn't be trippin now. Thus, it seems you still have a soul afterall.
