Observe how care manifests in the ebb and flow of daily interactions around you. Notice the precise point where generosity begins to feel unduly demanding upon you. Granting space allows compassion to arrive gently, meeting needs as they arise. Let purpose meet reflection 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.
