Living the Ethic of Care

Living the Ethic of Care becomes a lifestyle in which the needs of others became paramount to all other concerns. The human experience is one of need that can be met by other humans both in the present world and in the realm beyond our reach. The focus of the caring one is ultimately on others. The world is full of needs to be met and through conscious effort one's life becomes consumed in that effort. It is about the natural need in the short term and about eternal needs on a greater scale. The Ethic of Care is a calling and entering into the fulfillment of one's calling meets one's own need as well. To see ongoing success following one's efforts into this fulfilling and self fulfilling experience is hugely gratifying. It is a giving and a receiving, with a purpose whose results may never fully be known.
