Why are we so lucky and others are not?

Theresa

I have recently started work experience in a disabled centre, four days per week. I enjoy the work, staff are great, but often feel sorry for the people who are in the centre, basically because they are disabled. There are some who really cannot do anything for themselves, and I feel afraid and upset for them. I haven't spoken to my manager at work about this, as I'm afraid it could affect my career prospects. I worry that the wrong sort of people go into that sort of work, and that they will not be safe. I wonder to myself why 'we' are so lucky, and others are not? Why do I feel like this? and how can I separate my life from my working life? Thanks for listening, Theresa, Colchester.
