I don't mean pedestrian caring. I mean a deep, rich relationship between you and what it is you practice. That caring translates into focus, attention, deliberation etc.

I'm 27 years old, I have a high income and I really enjoy higher education. At this point I don't care about getting my MA. I just really enjoy education for educations sake.

I'm sure I'm not the only person who has this "demand" ... I just wish there was a way to connect the supply and demand in a better way :)
