Many people like myself are emotionally detached from most problems no matter how major they may be, it doesn't mean they don't care just that they dont take it as emotionally as one might normally take it

Empathy is the ability to recognize the emotions of another sentient entity. An example is when you see an ill person and you pity him/her, or when you see children playing and you know they are happy. Empathy is thought to be the prerequisite for sympathy and compassion. However, simply having empathy is not enough for sympathy. One can see a person smiling and understand that they are happy, yet not feel happy at the same time. Additionally, people who torture other people certainly are empathetic but they show no compassion.
