Abstract

The article approaches the intricate fabric of human existence with three words charged with existential significance: calling, response, and history. The intertwining threads connecting these words are developed through several pairs, namely: freedom and calling, affectivity and calling, sociability and calling, hope and calling, concluding with self-care and caring for others as the deepest attitude of humanity that defines its existential fabric.
