Happy at Work
From Mother Teresa...
"The miracle is not that we DO this work, but that we are HAPPY to do it." (emphasis mine)
I read that quote and was challenged. My list of "to do" today is always endless and sometimes things I do are not necessarily appreciated....like cleaning the toilet or dusting or balancing the books... One thing is certain...the miracle IS not that I DO this work but that I am HAPPY when it is done! I'm afraid I'm not always HAPPY doing the work but I AM happy when it is accomplished!

I have realized that I often will do the work but it's harder to do it with out complaining. I wonder why I do it when I complain anyways...
Yeah..it is so easier to be a whiner...
