Work provided reward, greater effort and luck which you make greater rewards, but a reason for living could never be alone all derived from any job in my view. But the absence of work itself, idleness, boredom, apathy and depression are consequences. A job does promote a level of well-being, take that away what fills the void. I am tired..does that make any sense?
Me too even longer (ten years plus)... I see where you are coming from. But I wasn't trying to apply to myself. I am aware of the anti-work theories that all work is misery, all suffering comes from it and we must stop working to end this or something like that. I guess I don't fully buy into that. We may be retired from the job, but we keep busy and never stop. I can's imagine eternal leisure or every day of every week is a Saturday. From my few weeks here you are working your varied gifts and that is a beautiful thing.

nope.
I've been retired for three years.
I haven't missed having a job one bit.

I've heard it said
that TRUE success is being paid to play.
Absolutely...not at all (just miss the action, sometimes, the rest forgetaboutit).
