Life is a Puzzle

Every turn is a new challenge on our emotion, on our ability to sympathise or empathise and i wonder where does one learn that or do we miraculous find it in us if we dig in deep enough....i wonder. And if we don't and just go on with our life uncaring of all the pain and difficuties that's shared with us, have we become emotionless being....The truth is; we can go on ignoring all that's going on around us, not to participate in it and the world still goes on, the ground has not open up to swallow us??
