We live in a complex world of abstract entities and obscure developments where we often forget that our reality
is made of individuals and their relations to one another and the world. The forward-looking thinker Theodore
Zeldin observes this deficit in present-day human co-existence as follows: “We know a lot about the material
world but we don’t really know who inhabits this planet. That to me is the big agenda of the 21st century.” This
observation suggests that we ought to find ways to make empathy and understanding tangible, inspiring and
exciting on a person-to-person level. In his view, truly relevant and responsible service means facing the urgent
issues of our times by working from within the fabric of life. As such, Zeldin stresses that this is the only way
to ensure sustainable living conditions in centuries to come.
Service is as old as human kind. In its original sense to be in service is an ethical obligation for every
sustainable life. When you help, you see life as weak; when you fix, you see life as broken; yet, when you
serve, you see life as a whole. Thus, when I serve I am not in a position of strength because we serve with the
whole of ourselves. Being in service means that we employ all our experiences and creativity. This wholeness
in us serve the wholeness in others.
To encourage civility and civic responsibility, individuals need to get involved in taking action that makes a
difference to others. This way, humans are a part of the solution rather than passive observers. This kind of
engagement promotes one’s sense of self, refines the sensibility for connectedness to others, and generates one
of the most rewarding feelings that results from contributing to something larger than oneself. Empathy and
service are the bridges to community, which add depth and meaning to our life, stretching into a civility that
enriches us all.
The understanding of being in service deals directly with life realities and is not just contemplating from an
exiled and self-indulged position. In most of the so-called developed world, service has been only adopted in
the realm of work in order to substantiate and replace means of production that optimize profit (wealth) or gain
(power). However, service goes beyond that. It should be present in all walks of life as a transforming,
supposedly mutually beneficial process. In order to meet the ever-growing and unprecedented challenges of our
times, we need to unleash the full potential of all individual human creativity by profoundly reorganizing our
relations to life and the world.
