I was talking to a dear friend of mine the other day and we were sharing the many challenges she was going through, ranging from family health issues to work struggles to feelings of giving up. You know, we have all been there, and might still be. It just helps a lot to be able to share with another woman. It just helps.
We then discussed how plain working helps so much and it hit me then; the routine of work, the challenges, the sometimes boring tasks, the sometimes great moments, just the fact that we are needed and being productive, is what helps even more during those moments when we are ready to give up. Plain work ( ing) has helped my friend and me too, just pull through.
So here is to just plain dull, boring, exciting, working. Never underestimate its power. Namaste
