See Care Everywhere
January 17, 2021
“We must rapidly begin the shift from a thing-oriented society to a person-oriented society.”
Keep it slow and simple… see care everywhere
When so much news seems bad for so long, it’s easy to see the world as dark and chaotic. But care persists. In fact, it’s everywhere. Today’s simple practice is to notice care as you go about your routines.
Our new blog (check it out below) asks this question: “What would change about modern life if we organized our economy around care?” To answer that question, we might start by looking for the care that surrounds everyday. Some jobs have “care” in the title, like daycare workers and healthcare workers. But care is far broader. If you look, you’ll definitely find it.
You’ll see care work in teachers, sanitation workers, farmers and grocery providers. You’ll see it in nurses and mail carriers and coworkers and neighbors. Musicians, artisans, bakers, and makers—carers all. Look for it, and you’ll find you’re richer for it. Happy hunting.
