Suffering

Why is it so hard to see suffering. we are naturally humanitarian by nature i suppose. whenever we see suffering our empathy centers kick in and we feel a natural sense of kinship or bond and suddenly feel compelled to take action or be involved. either that or we feel its an opportunity to help and be acknowledged for having a purpose or some level of being needed somehow.

I'm not sure i understand it, but i think my theory is a pretty good guess if nothing else. any thoughts? or theories anyone?
