Sorry you're having such a tough day. I have a lot of empathy too, and I used to want to change the world and feel like a failure because I couldn't. I finally learned that we change the world one person at a time, and not all people want to be helped. So while you are trying to help people-- and you probably succeed more often than you realize-- remember to be gentle to yourself as well.
