It really sounded like you were saying how unforunate it was for us and that you were not affected by it at all. It sounded like you were trying to have compassion, but it didn't come out as that way.
The only example I can come up with is if I passed a person laying on the ground who had fallen over and I just started telling them how sorry their situation was and said, "I hope a car doesn't run you over" that is pretty much the image I got in my head with you saying what you said.
