Considering the state of the world, over-empathizing is probably the least of our worries. I don't think it is over-reacting to get a little teary at the end of a movie, song, or story, and those things are complete fantasy. If it can appropriate at times for things that are total fiction, then to get affected from time to time by things that happen to real people isn't necessarily going over the top in my opinion.

If more people could open themselves up to feel something genuine for others, we might find ourselves in a better position to address the problems that need solving.

I hope everyone involved will be able to find some peace.
