Turn your work into a form of personal and spiritual growth by doing it exceedingly well, as one form of service to the world. I have a very health conscious, spiritual friend, Martha, at this moment in her life, sells lottery tickets, liquor and cigarettes in a liquor store to help pay her bills. She’s almost 60!
Rather than bitterly resent her position, she has made it her ministry to create a positive atmosphere, giving kindness and care to every human being that passes through those doors. Not surprisingly, wonderful little miracles occur often. (And yes, she is also doing the groundwork to create new employment.)
Rarely are things what they seem to be on the surface. In every relationship, in every job, and in every life experience there is much more going on than meets the eye.
