What is care ...

Everyone understands such concepts as care, caring about. I think you should not stop there. If only this concern was not intrusive. From obsessive care, there will be no benefit, but rather harm and anxiety. It is necessary to think about your actions and show them so that they do not harm others.
But I want to draw your attention to the very essence of this phenomenon. When care is not a beautiful word, namely the action we need. And again, a retreat, I will not consider cases where care is simply necessary, for example, people with disabilities and infirm people. Here all without questions, it is necessary to help, this is the rule of society - cohabitation of people.
In my view, taking care is to do something for the benefit of another person or for another person. As rules are close people. What kind of actions are needed by another person? In fact, there is nothing special about this, all this is ordinary business, but the reason that forces us to take care of others is very interesting ... I'm too lazy to do something or I just do not want to, as my hands say - they do not want to do anything, so I ask someone to do it for me. Everyone has a person who cares and does our work for us from time to time. You are resting at this time, and someone is working for you. Does not it look like anything? Life in a debt reminds me. The meaning of care is that you will not get anything, unless of course you are not a boor and are not going to respond the same. BUT most people will be forced to return the same thing, with time, when there will be an opportunity. Of course it's nice when you are taken care of, but in fact you buy or take care of your debt to return with time.
Something like this.
