Empathy and Outrospection

After reading this article about the Bahamians trying to enter the US after Hurricane Dorian, I think that I am somewhere between sympathetic and compassionate for the Bahamians. This is because they are being denied from entering the US when they have no where else to go. It makes me think about how they have just lost everything due to a natural disaster, and they are being turned away from the only place that they have left to go. This makes me feel sorry for the people that this is happening to, and I care that their lives have been ruined and they have no where to go.  I also think that by using outrospection and looking outside of myself I will be able to better understand the situation the refugees face by looking at how other people view the what is happening. This will allow me to realise the severity of what is going on, and the effort some people are trying to go through to help these refugees.
