The first of Ralph’s good virtues is being a hard worker. Ralph loved to help his father. He was always exited about helping him with the milking and the chores. Ralph enjoyed work. His first real job was herding cows for one of his neighbors named Mrs. Corcoran. At first this job was difficult since Ralph had no experience.

In Frances Moore Lappe’s essay, “Freedom From and Freedom To,” speaker one argues the many civil liberties we are bestowed with give us freedom from government interference. The speaker argues he is free because there is no one there who can determine what to do with his life; he can pursue whatever he desires, whenever he desires. Speaker one discusses money plays a major role in the aspects of freedom because in his aspect of freedom, “freedom from interference”, the speaker argues the more money one acquire the more worry-free lifestyle you will be living (Lappe, 510) Although financial stability is a big part of being “free” it can not possess every aspect of happiness. Speaker one claims “money is essential to finding oneself” (Lappe, 511)…

During his childhood, he encountered the kind of men the women in his class didn’t think of to become. He knew the kind of men who labored with their bodies, from marginal farmers to welders, and carpenters. They were the kind of men who were just getting by in life trying to survive. These were the men who worked all day in any kind of weather. Because of working so long around machines they had hard hearing. The skin on their face became to look a lot like “the leather of old work gloves” (169) from all the squinting for not being able to see correctly. “The fathers of my friends always…
But Happy isn't succeeding because he works hard, because he's well liked, or because he's exceptionally good at what he does. He's succeeding through the neo-American shortcut to happiness, the modern American Dream, which encourages cut-throat competition at every level. Happy, much like millions of other Americans, is moving up in the world by defeating his competition, by destroying all of those in his way. On page 23 and 24, he says, "All I can do now is wait for the merchandise manager to die"¦He's a good friend of mine." Happy desires more money, more power, and more responsibility strongly enough that he is willing to lose a good friend of his, just to get his job.…

But as this is self-evident, Schwartz wonders why we embrace Smith’s view of work. Schwartz answers that Smith’s view creates a self-fulfilling prophecy. The world of work is often so gloomy that people do hate it. Even highly skilled professionals like physicians, lawyers or professors may want to do good work, but find that only satisfying the bottom line matters to their employers. They are actively discouraged from spending time with patients, clients, or students. After a while, they start to work only for the money. But this is contrary to our…
Work is truly something that we’re all required to do. It is what keeps us moving along with the earth, as said in the poem. Work by kahlil Gilbran expressed how work can be and should be an expression of love. The thought struck me a lot; it is truly wonderful if people can work while loving every bit of it. I do agree that when one loves what he is working at, it no longer becomes work. I especially love the lines pertaining to what it means to be working with love: “It is to weave the cloth with threads drawn from your heart, even as if your beloved were to wear that cloth.…
