Do It For Love

The farmer seems to always have something to do on the farm.  Since the work is never over, what keeps him going?  Pace and love.  The farmer works at a certain efficient pace because he/she knows what their body can do and does not ask it to do what it cannot, either too much or too fast.  The farmer is not into “more” as in more money or more stuff.  There must be time for some rest, to look over the land, be with one’s thoughts and with friends talking about what they share in common.  They love the land and care for it not asking too much of it, so that the land can rest a bit and be renewed.  The farmer loves the land.  So pace and love keeps them going and informs the fullness of their lives.  Think about this when you are working at whatever you do.  Maybe you have no choice in what you do.  And then, maybe you do.
