Care I'm going to stop the jokes here for once:
Care is to have deep feelings for someone that go beyond normal boundaries and will make you want to reach out to them when they are hurting, to share their sorrows and their joys, to go the extra mile just to see them smile. Care doesn't exclude because of race, gender, or sexual-orientation, religious boundaries do not block it, National Laws would not tear it down. Care would go where others might say never, risk it all, just for a friend, even for a stranger. That is the true meaning of care. And the world doesn't have enough of it... sadly...
