or is it kind of outdated and irrelevant in our current time?
Hello Dear Plenum,
"Social obligations" for me is something of an outside origins that is imposed on Self.
“Social responsibilities” on the other hand has it’s source within and is perceived by me as an Inner desire to express Love and Care.
Of course above differences in meanings are caused by understanding that I’m attaching to those labels/words, but the distinction is significant.
What does it mean to be “responsible” in regards to Other-Selves? Do no harm; support if You can and are allowed; do not condemn or prove to Other-Self false unworthiness that One can perceive as a result of personal dissonance between One’s Ideals and the reality that He/She is perceiving / finding Him/Her – Self in. But also do not falsely praise nor glorify Other-Self and by that offer false feedback with which Other-Self may build false Self-Image.
I also think, that significant part of “responsibility for Other-Selves” is to treat properly Self. Only than One can treat properly Other-Self.
All I have Best in me for You
