I am almost envious. I have always had too much empathy with people. I can't ride the bus sometimes because of the empathy I feel with everyone on the bus. So many of the people riding the bus are suffering because of hard economic times. Many of them are homeless. My conscience bothers me over the slightest mistakes. I've been told I am so empathetic it is eccentric. I have often had homeless people live with me. I've been kicked out of houses by roommates because of the bizarre behavior of some of the mentally ill homeless people I have taken in. I do these things but I always feel like I'm not doing enough.
