As usual thought-provoking subjects you pen. A lot of GOOD work in this world doesn't even pay or pays low. Yet it is necessary evil at worst and hopefully much better than that. Again you remind us that in the U.S. we are infinitely better off even with a "lousy job" than so many still today working in the modern world in "sweatshops"

Sweatshops in Mumbai,India, Jakarta, Indonesia, Ho-Chi-Min City, Vietnam, etc.,etc., etc. Multinational companies continuously seeking out the poorest, hungriest, neediest populations of the world for the cheapest labor markets. To make their billions on the grief of others. Work for those with goals of their own to accomplish are fortunate. For work under those circumstances is the glue that binds rewards with ambition and desire. As usual, this is another outstanding piece of work Ron. Revealing humane issues we all need to become involved with and, make a difference for our suffering, fellow mankind. God bless. JMW

It makes for a dismal forecast, yet hope springs eternal as long as there is work to be done,when we think about it. Excellent Ron!...ET

"But without work we are nothing,
but empty-- despair."

You're tellin' me...I have put out about 150 electronic/internet applications and but one did call back...I am hoping our wonderful (?) president signs the unemployment extension bill into law, and before August or I will be living on the street...Take care,Ron...Ed & rufuz

Ron, "we" are nothing but shells when we have "nothing" to work toward, to achieve. The picture of the workshop hurts my soul because I know those poor people are trapped in a prison of time and "nothing" or "no one" will ever know the suffering they have felt at the hands of their leaders. We need to work but not by force nor the way these people worked. The images I saw as I read this filled me with pain & sadness as I thought of those in the picture.

Work is so good for the soul...tiresome, redundant at times, toilsome, yet, purposeful in keeping our minds off of whatever it is that haunts the human heart...whether it be from others, or within...from famine or disease, etc...
...if you can go to "Work" it will ease your soul!
So true...
I enjoyed your pen...:)
Thanks for sharing, Ron...and stopping by
Have a wonderful week!
Love and Peace~
