There is a lack of quality and a lack of care in so much these days. Many of us have been through years of schooling and still can't identify a quality moment or a quality item. We don't understand our own values and the standards they should be based on to discern quality. It's hard work to think about what is of quality, what is meaningful, and why. We have to discuss and confront our own values. All this can lead to unpleasant conflicts in our lives. Quality and relative merits should be honored, nurtured, guarded, reinforced, enjoyed, and celebrated. Mark, you are so right. There is a lack of quality and a lack of care in so much these days.
