How can I stop feeling?

Some philosopher in the past said:
"
life is a tragedy for those who feel and a comedy for those who think"

I suspect I'm cursed because I feel and I think.

It's the feeling that gets me into the most trouble. Because I have empathy for others. I feel so strongly about it when I believe others have been wronged or mistreated.

The world, alas, is not built upon fair and equitable though.
