darren_strangerI did a little metta meditation on the way home tonight, the first time in a couple of weeks. I followed the usual progression, and noticed something when i got to the final stage of extending the good wishes to everyone. I'd started thinking in terms of "may everyone be safe.. may they all be happy..", then decided to alter it slightly to "..may we all be happy..". That gave a different feel to it, with more of a sense of unity, of all of us in this thing together, rather than me sitting apart sending the good wishes to everyone. It also helped take the sense of 'me' out of the equation a bit. I think that is a better way to approach it in future.
I should also remember just how good a spot of metta is for contributing to a sense of ease and wellbeing as well.
