Work Enjoyment.
Accidental Poet said:
In 51 years of working, I\'ve learned many things. At 13 I really had no idea what I wanted to do, and not a lot of influence in how to work. But over time I did begin to learn that I was starting to know what it meant to want to make a difference. And from various people I\'ve learned that I need to hold myself accountable for what I do. And you\'re right Andy, loving what you do is a happy life. Beautiful write. ; )

If we love what we do, then we do what we love
and then, even the hardship of our work, melts away.

I\'ve been working 54 years (the last 40 yrs working self employed) and I am just giving up on it.... all NI stamps fully paid since day one.
I\'m looking forward to enjoying retirement.

Very true Andy some jobs were more a vocation which were a pleasure, whilst others were simply dire. Great piece of writing 👍

Give me retirement (in comfortable circumstances) any day - and preferably for as long as possible.
Good attempt to get \'em productive again though, Andy.

It’s nice to be able to have a job that you can actually enjoy . Many people don’t have jobs they like and I guess it probably affects their moods , and how they feel
Glad you enjoyed your job

The right music is such an aid to finding peace of mind and so to sleep.

I\'ve noticed that with certain music, if I close my eyes I feel as if the music lifts me up like on a cloud of euphoria. Wonderful way to end the day Andy and a great write. ; )

\'That sound of music touched me\'
\'Taken to a world of beauty\'
\'That place of Utopia
Brought to me
At the end of the day\'..
a wonderful dedication and detailed rendering, of such a relatable scene
(sorry for messing with the order of your lines Andy
I meant no disrespect, just wanted to highlight
that unassuming poetic skill: you hide in your write\'s, at times\'

Yes, some may burn out trying to do it all. Would they go insane in the end trying to meet ALL the world\'s needs? Or certainly have a breakdown.
They would go mad trying to help me to sing anyway. Millions have tried! lol.

Yes I can see that. Giving of ones self in a form of compensation for some thing missing perhaps. Whereas they themselves are needy but for many a reason, possibly cannot recognise that or, will not seek some form of easing or help.
But it has to be said that helping others is often cathartic or even a self healing process.

My Dad had a computer and email for a few years, but he hates anything that\'s even related to technology communication. But, he\'s from a generation who accepted snail mail as all they\'ll ever know, He\'ll be 95 in July. Great write Andy. ; )
