WORKING IS GOOD.. OR IS IT? (303 hits)

In our society, it's easy to devalue certain types of work as beneath us.

Not only were those slaves likely responsible for the lowliest of tasks, but they were doing it against their will and with no hope of relief. In this midst of this undesirable situation.

In whatever work you do today, seek to find greater meaning in it. Work is not a punishment, but an opportunity. Even though you may not stay where you are forever, do your best today with dignity.

Powerful and wonderful message. Blacks built this country with the tasks that no one wanted to do.

We must remember that its the little tasks that get the bigger ones done. How can businessmen do their little stock market thing at their desks without the maids who clean their offices daily, and the administrative assistants who make sure everything is in order, and the temps and interns who photocopy file and organize for them?

Without the little jobs nothing would get done. And when we lose sight of that, we lose sight of everything.
