# expansion
not just to offer support
not just to support based on your understanding of their wellbeing
not just to support them in a way that helps you
it is to truly and actually help them to be better in their essence
we offer support through [[giving]]
that can be evaluated transparently
accepted or declined freely
without expecting anything in return
these offerings are shaped and made
through our best understanding
of what it would look like for this being to be
happy, healthy, harmonious, and free
To care is to support freedom
We do this with our understanding, respect, and resource
We must understand what freedom look like for the other and how we can help
We must respect the integrity and autonomy of the other
We must give of ourselves without expectation
care is [[eros|erotic]]
it is fully lived
## the imperative to care
We have an imperative to care, as we ultimately compose this world together as one being.
