Answer:

I have experienced this through imagination, movies and news; fortunately never through my own reality.

Step-by-step explanation:

The fact of feeling devastation, and sadness when thinking about a strong typhoon or tsunami, after seeing a news, a movie or having a bad dream, I’d call it empathy. Empathy helps you understand other people’s feelings, even when you have not shared their experiences. Empathy makes a person greater, because you’re able to put yourself in other’s shoes, you’re able to even feel what he/she is feeling; it’s never going to be compared with the reality of those who have suffered the lost a family member during one of these natural catastrophes, for example… but at least, you’ll get to understand a little bit that person and give support in your own way. Being compassionate is one of the greatests human's values.

Yes. I have experienced being devastated by a strong typhoon and earthquake. Of course, I really feel very sad and worried about it knowing that you have lost so many things that you have invested in for years. At the same time, I am also thankful that I was able to survive from the said calamities. Hope this answers your question.
