Fascinating. Compassion for me felt more like a warm ache in my chest. Metta is more of a warm buzzing light filling my entire body and outside of me with happiness. It is hard to describe but I definitely felt a difference.
Holy moly… finally learned that there is a significant difference between compassion and empathy. It’s all about our desire to alleviate suffering. This reminds me of your earlier lesson about sending metta to everyone. John Lennon got it right in “Imagine”. 🙏

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
I felt compassion as a lightness in high chest, also my eyes watered.
Sending compassion to everyone! ❤
Generally a good feeling, different from metta...
