Life's Work

"The object of living is work, experience, happiness. There is joy in work [...] There is no happiness except in the realization that we have accomplished something."
{Henry Ford}

After "graduating" on Monday with the completion of my last college final examination, I am moving on to the much anticipated, working phase of my life. I start today, and am excited to have a new role, and to accomplish new things in my work.

As I start my role as a working woman, though, I will remember that the object of living, in addition to work, is to experience life and happiness. I will spend time with Joe, walk Ollie, enjoy the holidays with family and friends, and find joy in my work everyday.

Most of all, I will find a happy balance between work and play. I will live a life of joy.
