FAMILY

I received an email this morning and it had this included in it, at the bottom. It really hit home to me and made me think.

Work is not the most important thing in life, although we spend the most important hours of the day there, sometimes even sacrificing precious weekends.

It is true, that FAMILY is the most important thing in the world, but far too often, we don't treat our family as if they were the most precious people to us.

Why exert all of our energy at work, and not have any left when we return home?

It makes me very sad.


Here is the text from the email:

Are you aware that if we died tomorrow, the company that we are working for could easily replace us in a matter of days. But the family we left behind will feel the loss for the rest of their lives. And come to think of it, we pour ourselves more into work than into our own family, an unwise investment indeed, don't you think?
