Thank you girls. Since we all need to work longer these days, let us be grateful that we have a job that allows us to continue having a roof over our head and food on the table.
The miracle is not that we do this work, but that we are happy to do it.

Thank you for your replies.
If in our daily life we can smile,
If we can be peaceful and happy,
Not only we, but everyone will profit from it.
This is the most basic kind of peace work.

Everyone has been made for some particular work, and the desire for that work has been put in every heart.
Jalal ad-Din Rumi
**********************
Work is love made visible. And if you cannot work with love but only with distaste, it is better that you should leave your work and sit at the gate of the temple and take alms of those who work with joy.

“All happiness depends on courage and work.”
― Honoré de Balzac
“There is no time for cut-and-dried monotony. There is time for work. And time for love. That leaves no other time.”
“Get going. Move forward. Aim High. Plan a takeoff. Don't just sit on the runway and hope someone will come along and push the airplane. It simply won't happen. Change your attitude and gain some altitude. Believe me, you'll love it up here.”
― Donald J. Trump

Thank you Inda for sharing this message.
“There is no time for cut-and-dried monotony. There is time for work. And time for love. That leaves no other time.”
I need to get back to work.
I need to get back to work as well. Real work, not just sitting behind the computer.
I just found this very inspiring thread tucked away in the archives. I guess we are all happy to be somewhat at work again.
I am borrowing your image Inda, I hope you don't mind, it is so appropriate.
We are definitely happy to be able to work again, even though we need to limit the number of people we can see each day.
If you want to do real work
give your whole heart to it.
Nothing happens just by talking....
Rumi
Let us enjoy our work. So many people have lost their jobs due to Corona, as well as a lot of their savings to make ends meet.
You are so right Sue. Many people have lost their work permanently. let us be grateful that we have a job and enjoy working.
Work is what we all need to keep the middle class prosperous.
Don't give up. Just continuing to hold on will yield/reveal strength and power. Continuing on after a setback is its own kind of strength. Perseverance is power.
japanese saying.
“If you can't fly, then run; if you can't run, then walk; if you can't walk, then crawl, but whatever you do, you have to keep moving forward.”
– Martin Luther King Jr. “If you are working on something that you really care about, you don't have to be pushed.
As I said before, be happy that you have a job, and I pray that those who are looking for some work will find a job to keep them out of utter poverty.
A positive attitude makes you happier and more fulfilled at your job. Even if you don’t really like your job, changing your mindset can help you flip the script.
Thank you yoko for bringing back this post.
