I have nothing against working hard; I've done it all my life. However, a lot of work is just unnecessary busywork or not as important as some make it out to be. I work at a place that ships craft supplies to stores; we've been working for about 37 days straight now, 10 hour days and 8 on Sundays, to get the Christmas shit out. CRAFT SUPPLIES, fucking craft supplies, we're busting our asses for, not having any time for our friends and family, no time to do chores, go to the grocery store, and no time to relax and recharge-just work, eat, and sleep. And the sleep is not restorative. Complete

But the end result of all of your hard work is the joy it brings to all of those people waiting to receive those craft supplies!
I'm a dressmaker, it can be very stressfull, hard work and I don't charge enough for what I do (have been told this many times) I'm a great dressmaker! just not good at the money side of things. Sometimes I have too much work, others I don't have any! Life is full of ups and downs! My pleasure even after doing this for 35 years comes not from the payment at the end (although I need this to survive) It's the Joy on the face of a satisfied customer.. seeing them look great in something I have done!.

One day as I sat pondering the meaning of life, during a particularly stressfull time a few years ago now, I remembered something my 3 year old grandson happened to mention to my daughter about when he was in the sky before they gave hime eyes and legs and arms and came down here!
If I chose my life experience before I came! then I wouldn't have given "Me" anything I couldn't handle now would I! This seemed logical to me, and I have excepted my life for what it is! up's down's the lot.. Glass half full as they say!
