Work is a religion and the work place is the temple, and your job is the prayer. If you work all your problems disappear. You have food, you have a home, you have a family, you have friends etc. If you work on the work you love, it is not work, it is a recreation. If you choose the work you love, you will never have to work even one single day in your life. If you work and sweat, all your poison in your body gets burned out and you are left with a clean healthy body. If you have an ailment or sickness, get up and do some work and soon you will be cured. If you work you gain real wisdom and your life gets easier. If you work, you understand other people. If you don't have work, become a volunteer and discover the pleasure of work. If you work you leave behind a legacy, therefore, let us all get up in the morning and get to work." --- Copyright © 2001 Subramaniam Masilamany August 13, 2001 Life is more than just winning and losing, more than just fortune and fame...
