Approach care by seeking one unnecessary layer to safely remove from the gesture. Pacing yourself honors the process of both giving and receiving true care. Kindness remains potent when it is chosen intentionally rather than obligated. Let initiative meet curiosity in the way you approach this. Let this small step help you connect separate ideas into a useful whole as you separate an intention from an expectation.

A question for you
