Life is challenging, and sometimes we get caught up with things that happened around us whether the good of it or the bad of it but life goes on. We all grow up in different areas and we been brought up in different ways, but as we grow up we learn the difference between two completely different actions "Love and Caring".
I always get it confused then when my mother always tell me to "Love my neighbor as myself" does that mean I should care about them? However, I get it confused about being loved and cared. Although the two word are often used interchangeably, but they are two different actions in between them.
Loving someone is a feeling, while caring for them is an act of service. Loving someone means you care about them as a person, while caring for someone means you are actively taking the time to care for them more. But the two word are essential part of our life, it's important to care for one another, and love one another. Caring, for me is when you just do something for someone without expecting anything in return, but is there anything like that again in this word?
Often people care for you because they want something in return, which I think it shouldn't be that way of caring. If I put my needs first and want the best for you means I love you. So I think caring is more important than loving.
I went far asking different people about the difference between loving and caring, but there are some key differences I learned from them.
Some said Loving is an action that is done for the benefit of the the person, while caring is a feeling that is done for the benefit of the other person. For instance, you love somebody, you would do things for that person that would help them feel better, likewise you may be caring for somebody by cooking for them, but you are not doing it for the person's benefit. You are simply cooking out of love.
Why is caring more important than loving?
Many people have the misconception that caring is less important than loving. This is not true. Caring is more important than loving because it is a good way to show love. It can be a ways to help your neighbors, show them your love about them and want to be around them. However, the difference is clear for the two word *Love someone and want to help them is what I know as Caring.
Love someone and want to be around them is all I know about Loving.
Conclusion.
Don't forget that you only care for people you love, but loving can be what you can do for yourself. So don't follow the common misconception that people think that loving is caring. Loving is not caring. Loving is something you do for yourself and it requires no one else. The people you love need to be there in order for you to love them. Caring is something you do for the people you love because you care about them.
