Funny my motto has always been ‘work to live, not live to work’.
Work sure has a meaning, its means I’m a slave….....
To make it meaningful, I think has to involve bettering the lives of humankind and all other earthlings, in the end, whats the point in doing a job if its just for profit?
Things aren’t meaningful, not to me at least, tho I know countless people who think they are. Really meaningful to me is enjoying my life with the people I love and care for deeply, working is only a means to an end, tho I’m sure the ducting job I’m working on now will probably be the end of me!, its certainly taking its toll on my homelife at the moment.
Hopefully when the kiddiwinks are all a little older and all in school, my wife will be able to go back to work and get us off this precarious tight-rope of a breadline.
As for an identity, not sure I want work to give me a sense of identity, that would mean I’m pampering to the supressed ego thats lurking around in the bowls of my subconcious. Over the last 5 years, I’ve finally discovered who I am, I’m not about to give up that identity for an ego, even if it means higher social status and or acceptance.
I JUST NEED MORE MONEY!.......sorry ego outburst, he’s not fully under control yet!
hey-ho, back to work we go
