People bemoan the loss of craftsmanship, and rightly so. We wonder what has happened to pride and care about every little detail, just because. Indeed, too many have only read about such craftsmen. But there is something much deeper going on that often escapes our notice. There is a greater craft—and it is truly a craft—that underlies and gives meaning to all other crafts. Every human person is called to develop this craft as we mature. Indeed, forming the young in this craft should be the real focus of ‘raising’ or ‘educating’ our young. But of this craft, and how to cultivate it, and how it has been set aside, we hear precious little.
