work.......
If it's fun, it doesn't feel like work
Focused, busy, creating and developing
Sharing skills with others while gaining new ones
It keeps us out of trouble
Let's us know we are needed and have a place
Yet we are humbled by how hard it is sometimes
Long hours and long faces when it's not a piece of cake
A gift we need
Otherwise, what's the alternative?
So thankful I have always had some kind of work
So thankful for the world of it-diverse as it is
STOP
Ecclesiastes 3:12-13 "I know that there is nothing better for them than to rejoice and to do good in one's lifetime; moreover, that every man who eats and drinks sees good in all his labor-it is the gift of God." (NASB)

Leigh,
ReplyDeleteThis sums up my existence! So thankful I always have some kind of work!
Leigh congratulations on 20 years of such a rewarding and beautiful career. I love teachers with all of my heart! My son and I talked the other day about whether we could remember all of the teachers we have had in our lives. We then talked about what we learned from them and what we liked. I realized we were really blessed because so many of them really taught something that stuck.
ReplyDeleteI hope that you will continue to stick in the hearts of those wonderful children you teach.
Work does let us know we are needed, and that is a very good thing in this world.
Visiting really late for this post, but I'm glad I got a chance!
