There are times when caring, but doing nothing in particular, is the best you can manage - for example, I have a young child, one in the womb, and a full-time, demanding job, so i don't volunteer. It would overwhelm me. But I still make the time to read and think and be aware, because I can't do less than that and still be true to myself.

There are other times when doing so little could be a cop-out. Only you can make the decision for yourself which one is happening in your life.
