work

Your work is the rent you pay for the room you occupy on earth.
- Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon, former Queen consort of the United Kingdom

When love and skill work together, expect a masterpiece.
- John Ruskin

i hear many people complain about work. if you don't enjoy your job, maybe you need a change. of course, jobs are tough to get, so maybe you can change the way you view your job. do you help people? do you keep the world going; keep it clean, fix things, etc.? can you see yourself as part of the whole? is there a co-worker your friendly with? is there something, even small, that you look forward to each day? i encourage you to find something you like about your work. so much of our time is spent on the job. to have a good life it's important to spend your time doing something you enjoy.

i was a teacher for 10 years. i enjoy children and felt good helping them. i miss that, but i'm not able to do it anymore.

now i'm beginning as an artist and writer, things i can do as my energy allows. i'm not getting paid, but i enjoy my 'work.' in fact, i've just launched my 1st public web gallery. the address is www.liesloberfeld.com - link found to your right.

so, i wish you all happy working!
