In relation to the previous thread of "Why Care?" I figured I would delve into a paticular aspect of that topic.

Many have said that one must care about something, such as visiting these forums and replying to certain topics, or arguing one side of an argument, or they wouldn't be here in the first place.

But that doesn't necessarily mean someone cares about something, that only expresses interest. Just because someone is interested in something, doesn't actually mean that they care one way or another what happens to that something in the end..... Does it?

The Lessons of Caring Part II

Levels of Interest

Level 1: I only want to know what is going on. I only care a bit. This care is usually ignored because people judge mostly on the action of care. For planners, people will analyze the practicality of the plan. If the plan is practical and straightforward, a person may judge the plan as best. The community may give the planner an award for attempting to care.

Level 2: I will participate some of the activity(ies)
I only care many times, however there are certain things I wouldn't do. This is the confusion. Although I seem to care about something, I did not do them. This means I am interested in something and care only a bit about the subject. This care may be ignored by some people. Depends on your definition. If you think the interest and the care is significant, then the care is significant. Most people ignores this fact.

Level 3: I will participate most of the activity(ies)
This is the second most confusing aspects. I seem to do everything well and everyone think I am caring. Yes. Most of the people, who are in this level, do most things. Those people care much more about the activity(ies) and they cannot completely participate. This is because those people need to do other things. The other things prevent them from participating. There are accusations of these people's uncaring nature. Those "uncaring people" need help. Help includes physical, psychological, and teachings.

Level 4: I will participate all of the activity(ies)
This is what people believe as the "most caring" category. I can finish something and not care about them. Some people actually care about their activities. If anyone wants to finish anything, there has to be some sort of caring activity. Although this is not significant, the caring level is there. People can't sense the caring levels because the work transformed the worker's personality. Most accomplishers has cool personalities or personalities like the Master Shadow Glow in the Seven Swords of Mount Heaven. Most beginners has personalities like a three year old kid: seeking for attention.

The process of level 4
1) the person is interested and cares about something they don't understand
2) A person analyze the situation. Then the person increases his or her skills. The person then increases the care. As the person is finishing a part of his or her work, the person's interest increases. The whole entire process is combined and hidden away from corruption and awful voodoo people.
3) habit
4) addiction
5) habit and addiction
6) calming down and finishing the job
7) analyze wheather the person wants to be the new person or the old
*if it is the new person, the person has a new expression of care
*if it is the old person, the person care like a scholar's description of a child. This means the person either care about everything or they don't care about everything.

The new expression all ranges. Some people may care about something and do it in the most radical way. For example, the Fei Hong Jing or Flying Red Sash/Buchanan/Shawl in Seven Swords of Mount Heaven yells a lot to her lover. When her lover is almost dead, she rescues him. This means she cares about her lover and what she do. She differently expresses her level of caring.

All of this is well and good, but you seem to be approaching the debate with the seperation of Interest and Care.... as in a few examples above, you seperated the two, as an example: 2) increase of skills, analysis, interest, and cares

So from what I gather from your post, you believe Caring and Interest are seperate from each other?

I know that there are people who care about the things they debate, and they are also interested in the debate..... or any situation in life for that matter.... that's a given. But do they always have to go hand in hand with one another?

For example.... some stranger on the news is in a life or death situation, they explain what's going on and the chances of survival, etc..... I will throw out a common sense solution or some other opinion about the situation because I am somewhat interested in it.... but does that mean I care one way or the other what actually happens to that person or if they make a decision that matches similar to what I was thinking?

In other words.... is it possible for someone who doesn't really care one way or another, to actually still be able to contribute and help someone's life just based on their interest? Or is that some level of "Caring?"

Yes. I separated the two. Caring and Interests are different. They can be the same when both levels of caring and interests are the same.

Hand in Hand
Physical: No. In the war, there are debates. People with different and disagreeing views need to debate. Those debating people don't fight each other. If they fight each others, they dislike each other. They dislike each other and they want the power all to themselves. If you have a selfish and ambitious nature, you will fight with other people.
Emotional: Maybe. If there are disagreements. Surely, there are going to be conflicts. Conflicts are created by clashing of two or more opinions.

Harsh Conditions
Yes. If your opponent make a move, you would care about what the opponent did. Other stuff you are about are: what is the significance or purpose of the opponent's move, what will the opponent do next, and how to defeat your opponent.

Yes. I typed:
2) increase of skills, analysis, interest and cares.
Notice the word: and... and combines all of them together. Notice the structure is simply listing the separate ones and combining the separate ones into one. Like a triangular diffraction glass to reveal the hidden colours of white light, I use my keyboard to reveal the hidden elements of the second process. If you don't like the type, I can change it to the following....
2) A person analyze the situation. Then the person increases his or her skills. The person then increases the care. As the person is finishing a part of his or her work, the person's interest increases. The whole entire process is combined and hidden away from corruption and awful voodoo people.

The powers' making is a safety net. The net ensures the corruption and awful voodoo people does not ruin the universes' atomic structure. If you ruin the atomic structure and the universes, the whole entire earth does not exist. If the earth does not exist, nothing related to earth exist. Humans will not exist. The solar system will not exist. If you are composed of the elements from the periodic table and more, you are part of this net.

I like and need to do a summary poem about the people's confusion. This is to people like Praxius, mathematicians, scientists, fighters, soldiers, warriors...any person in this world. It's something to remember. I will translate all of these into other languages. Eventually, everything will be all right again. Relax.

I am a normal person...
Seeking some fame and happiness...
This is because I got all my skills...
Or so I proclaim to the world....

When I see the world's toughness,
I wish to become a ruffian and a selfish person.
When I see the benefits of some good events...
I wish I changed all my wrongful ways.

I am a human.

I work hard and I complain.
The result is only effective for the galaxies.
My net gain is not a lot,
I am happy about that...

When I achieve what I have...
I say: "It's enough"

When I see too much of the world...
I want to take a break.

Through the storms, troubles, and my errors...
I will live happily and painfully on earth....
I am a person of the galaxies;
Caring out deeds for the benefit of myself,
Others, and the galaxies.

I am an avatar to represent what I do.

I am a human, a part of the galaxies.

I think that argument assumes an amount of sincerity that everyone might not share. Insincerity would change the motivation of a poster potentially to the point even where they couldn't post on topics that did interest them.

Also it isn't correct to assume someone is here by choice. Perhaps they are a shut in or social misfit?

But that doesn't necessarily mean someone cares about something, that only expresses interest. Just because someone is interested in something, doesn't actually mean that they care one way or another what happens to that something in the end..... Does it?

I agree. There are many factors that might perk someones interest in a topic without them really caring about it. I don't know how many times I've pretended to like the poetry of a pretty girl. :-?

Twinkle twinkle little star,
I've looked and listened to you so far,
But now that I know you are a fake,
I'll gladly shove you in the lake.
