To care in Spanish, to care about something that you care about, is to be mindful of it. To care with a purpose, to care about something that has importance, is not to care about it, but to care about it.
To care about something is to be mindful, and to care about something, is to have a reason for it. To care about someone, is to have a reason for it. To care about something, is to want it. To care about something, is to value it.

Some people seem to believe they can only care about something if they are doing something actively (like washing their hands, going to work, or taking a nap). But all the things we do as humans are done in the name of something else. We’re all driven to care about something, so if we aren’t doing it for something, we aren’t living with a purpose, and that lack of purpose causes us to lose perspective on the importance of the things we care about.
Here’s the thing about care. When we care about something, we are not just doing something actively. We are actively doing something because we care about it, which is why we need to make sure we care about this thing in the first place. Because if we don’t care, we have no reason to care, and thus we lack motivation.
In the end, the reason that we are here at all is because we care about something, so we have a reason to care about it. So when we care about something, we can do anything with that thing, because if we dont care, we have no reason to care.
The idea of caring for something is the thing that makes it so powerful. Without caring for something, there is no reason to care and thus we are not motivated to care. This is why we need to teach ourselves how to care. This is why I say that it is not enough just to do something. We actually have to care about what we do.
To care and to care about something are two distinct things. To care is to care for something. To care about something is to care about something very deeply. Care about something is to care about life. We are meant to care about our future and our past. We are meant to care about our bodies, our emotions, our relationships, our health, our children, etc. So whether you care or not, you are meant to care about something.
In Spanish, to care is to “take care of” and there are two different ways to “take care of”: to care about something and to care for something. When you care, it’s your concern, your interest, your obsession. When you care about something, you are not only concerned, but you are interested in it. You want to know about it, you want to be there to help, you want to be a part of it.
It’s really interesting that the Spanish have two ways of saying “to take care of.” And both of those ways are really important to us. We care about our homes, and we care about our families, and we care about our health, and we care about everything. So taking care of in Spanish is really important to us because it is so important to us.
