Care For Vs. Care About

           Do we care for people or care about people? Do those two things look different?  The answer is: Yes, they do and I'm still learning how the look it. I can start by giving you all some ideas and maybe the meaning of it. I looked up the words "for" and "about" and this is what they mean or at least one verison of what the words means.
           Care means "serious attention, caution, or soliuitude" or "a cause of object of worry, concern, and anxiety".
           For means "intended to belong to or be used in connection with".
           About means "of concerning or in regaud to". It could also mean "connected or associated with".
          When you care for people or a person, it means that we are to be used in connection with them. It means that we have to be connected with them and know them very well. We have to get into their business and be with them everyday. That is what we think "care for" means anyways. We think we should do that but really God is doing that already for them if they believe. If not we should show them a God that care for them and wants to belong and be connected to them. We can be that way towards or spouse or family members and even friends but sometimes we are that too much. We try to fix problems and situations when really we should just stay out of the way and let them handle it on their own if they want to.
          When you care about people or a person, it means you are concerned, of, or in regaud to that person. You associate your feelings towards them and help them with the resources you have because you are concerned for them. You don't care for them because then they might start depending on you. This is when you want to take care of people because really don't want to get close to them. You can about them enough to help them out by giving them something but not enough to listen to them.
           To me, "caring for" a person is much more deeper then "caring about" a person. I care for my family and close friends but I care about the children I work with and see in other countries and even some of my friends just depends on how close we are.
            Does this make sense? I hope so. Would love comments on this one? Thanks.
