There is no shorthand for caring.
Caring is the work of being human.
Caring is a habit.
The habit of caring can be developed.
Opportunities to care have to be sought.
Caring is remembering to acknowledge.
Sharing actualizes caring.
There are no shortcuts.
If we want friends and companions, care.
Caring is not the usual. Unfortunately.
There are no substitutes for deep connection.
