If I was serious would I have called her 'Swammy'? I save my compassion for the people who deserve it.

Just wondering .........

What is your interpretation of compassion?

Who deserves 'your' compassion, as in why?

Just wondering - as you have stated here before, you do not have feelings, as such ............. like posts about when your family dies .........

Just a conversation topic, for those that maybe interested ...........
 
Compassion to me is something i can only feel when I am close, or have felt close, to the other person. That can be either online or in real life. For me when I feel compassionate towards someone I feel close to (or used to), I feel like, even though they may sometimes be hundreds of miles away, hugging them (and I hate hugs) because I feel like my words will mean so little.

I respect that answer, but curious so will ask the next.... So you don't feel you could or have had compassion for a stranger/someone you haven't talked to or met (eg someone in a news item, or a homeless person on the street?)

No. But I don't like hate them. I just don't think about them.

My immediate thought was how can you not think about them, but then I remembered that it is not until I worked in an area of the city where you see them daily that I got to see, think and feel something about what just seemed like an abstract concept in my mind before that.

My thoughts tend to be very narrow.
 
I actually think it can be really beneficial. My mum used to go to an equivalent and it certainly made her a lot more comfortable with public speaking. And she met some wonderful friends. However they were all quite old!
