Empathy is natural -and unique- to human beings. It should be easy, but unfortunately, we are so polluted by our habits that we've forgotten how to live like human beings. We civilized ourselves into monsters. Instead of empathy, we cheer death and destruction like minions, and will likely only take a step back to consider the consequences after everything that we love is no longer there. Based on where we're currently at, it will take the individual effort of billions of people to save us all while some people will eventually suffer greatly, because 'karma' has very feminine qualities.
