We can't be all work all the time. And it is important to do work that helps to make you happy. Money alone won't do it. I found this from an article by Claire McIntosh in Essence Magazine July 2008.

You'll need to remember a time when you were happy, when everything fell into place. I'd love to hear from people who have filled it in....

It gave me a chance to connect with ........ in a way that just felt right, easy and good. I'm still surprised by how much I ........ I realized how much I loved ........ And here's what else made the day special: the sight of ........, the sound of ........ I wore ........, and I remember the weather was ........ I was so filled with happiness that I didn't care if ........ I just let myself be in the moment. I realized just how good it felt to ........ I felt that ........ mattered. We get so caught up chasing....... we don't realize ....... is available if we just let ourselves ........ That was a revelation to me, and the day held yet another surprise: ........! All of my senses took in joy, and I marveled at ........ It was a day I'll never forget."
