Quotes
Until you make the
unconscious conscious,
it will direct your life
and you will call it fate.
Carl Jung
Know yourself - or you
can't be true to anyone.
Socrates
If you bring forth
what is within you,
what is within you
will save you.
If you do not bring
forth what is within
you, what is within
you will destroy you.
from the gospel of
Thomas (part of the
gnostic gospels)

More Ingredients of Caring
Caring - such a huge area. So much to think about and explore. The next thing that comes to mind is
Competence -
because bungling, intrusive, neglecting
care-taking is just not good enough.
So, more ingredients:
Knowledge - if someone
does not know how to care, it may be totally unhelpful
that they feel caring and try to care.
Self-listening, self-awareness.
Balance and limits - so that one doesn't give all
until one is depleted,
and yet doesn't shut oneself off from caring.
Consistency - so that the other can rely on us, have some sense of what they can and can't get from us.
Fairness - to ourselves as well as to others.
Good sense of self -
so we're not shamed if we learn something hasn't worked out,
so we can go on if there are setbacks.
Flexibility in approach -
caring isn't one size fits all, one approach fits all -
and even for one person, the same approach may not always work.
Patience - with oneself, with the other.
Trust - in oneself, in the other.
Humility (if that's the right word) - awareness that there's a lot we don't know.
Openness to learning - there's always more.
Courage - because we
don't know what will happen; we may get hurt; those we care for may be
hurt.
