Recently, someone posed the question, "How do you take care of yourself?"
The first thought that popped in my head was "work."
And I realized that it's true. Work is a way for me to take care of myself. Not every day, of course. Some days are exhausting and hard, but eight mornings out of ten, I wake up excited and ready to go to work.
I feel privileged that I have a job I love. I know not everyone does. I feel so thankful that I do what I do and with whom I do it. I'm honored to be surrounded by individuals who have dedicated their lives to helping others. I forget, sometimes, that any one of them could be working a better job, making more money in the private sector and yet, here they are, next to me, striving to help people help themselves.
How fortunate I am.

I'm glad you know it :)
I recently read a blog post that was the polar opposite of yours.
Ah well, I suppose we all have those days too...
the best thing in life is to love what you are doing :)
so very right. :) work is like a drug. its all u need.
This applies to me in a way! I can't seem to rest until I've done everything possible that needs to be done. I find myself a little lost without work haha
Beautiful post! It truly is a blessing when you love what you do.
we'll be joy if we do and enjoy to what we love to do, it's part of our life.^^
