Work equals Play

December 31, 2006

The master in the art of living makes little distinction between her work and her play, her labor and her leisure, her mind and her body, her information and her recreation, her love and her religion.  She hardly knows which is which.  She simply pursues her vision of excellence at whatever she does, leaving others to decide whether she is working or playing.  To her she is always doing both.
                        –    James Michener

 Pain and problems are inevitable.  But misery is optional and joy is a choice.
                        –    Dan Miller

 To God alone the glory.
                         –    Bach

Anita may not have mastered combining work and play, but she was far along the path. Even before she left law school, she was concerned about “work-life balance”. Several years later, she came to realize that instead of trying to balance two disparate things, they were both part of the same whole.

Working from home she finally got a chance to put that into action with ultimate flexibilty for labor, family, leisure and religion. She could do anything at any time of day. These wall postings were reminders that they were all parts of one whole – life – and it was all dedicated to God’s glory. That includes even one’s attitude in the the face of troubles.
