Why We Work
When we live in the world, weall work for some reasons or other. Different people have different attitudestowards work. Some people live to work. They devote themselves to their work. Theaim for which they work is to realize the value of life, to promote the de-velopmentof society and to make more people live a happy life.They make great contribu-tions to society and at the same time they also findpleasure in their work.
On the other hand, other peoplework to live. They regard work as a way of making a living. The purpose for which they work is to kill time or to make enoughmoney to support themselves and their families. Theyoften regard work as what they have to do. So they can'tobtain pleasure and enjoyment from their work. Such people,once they can afford to support themselves and their families, perhaps quittheir work.
In my opinion, we shouldn't goto extremes. Since we are members of society, we should do what we can to betterthe society so that we can live in a more comfortable and more convenientsurrounding. Good life is an assurance of smooth work. Only when we re-alize this can we live happily and work well.
