It's okay to be sad
I keep reminding myself that it's completely understandable to be sad and have a heavy heart when the people I care about are going through truly devastating situations.
The best I can do is be there for them.... even if there's nothing I can do for them.
I hope the scales of fortune tip in the other direction for them--soon. If *I'm* feeling so distraught over their situations, I can't fathom what they're feeling.
