I don’t love work so much that I’d be willing to trade a fulfilling life for it. There are countless things I’d rather be doing almost every minute I’m at work. I often hear this from people I meet, especially in my profession: 'I'm a teacher.' Too many people define themselves by their jobs.
I agree that too many people do that, I can't fathom why either, I guess other than that they simply don't have the zest for life or are too lazy to live it to their best advantage. Of course, many probably feel they are, but I think that's delusional.
