Along with the importance of little everyday gestures, social love moves us to devise larger strategies to halt environmental degradation, and to encourage a “culture of care” which permeates all of society. When we feel that God is calling us to intervene with others in these social dynamics, we should realize that this too is part of our spirituality, which is an exercise of love, and, as such, matures and sanctifies us.
