Life is worth while to everyone who is in tune with the Infinite Source of Life. Heaven Harmony flows into and through the life that is mental, physical and spiritual adjustment.

I would counter that it is the doing not the achieving. Most of your time is spent on your project not being praised for it after. Enjoy the task.

Amen.

I had a little internal grump when the other TAs (full time) and the teacher were getting gifts and cards at the end of the term and I wasn't. But I remembered I am part-time, and although I work with all of the children, it is likely their parents don't know my name. And the child I am paid to look after gave me a handwritten card with a photo on, and a present.

And positive thinking meant anything I received was especially treasured - as it should be. The important thing is that card/ present or not, I really did make a difference. I totally enjoyed the task.

You know what I'd like to do... Start a "pay off the national debt fund".
