"Mommy, how come work and play don't mix?"
The deep question came from my 4-year-old, Jessie Kate, as we drove home from our weekend in New Hampshire. She was listening to a CD of Disney songs, including "Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf". She was carefully considering the advice the 3rd little pig was imparting to his recklessly playful brothers.
My response? "Uh...."
I quickly pondered the words of this hard working little pig, the builder of the brick house, the one who saved his brothers' lives from the evil clutches of the Big Bad Wolf. But, play = fun, and if you can't have fun in your work, why do it? Because it always pays off in the end? I've seen too many examples to the contrary. No, life is too damned short to not enjoy your work. You've got to live each day to the fullest! Yes! Work and play DO mix!
"Um, well, Jess... I don't agree. I think you HAVE to mix work and play. That little pig was wrong." I paused, to see if it registered with her before continuing on.
"Oh, okay Mommy. Hey! Look at the scarecrow!"
So, how do YOU mix work and play? The best examples will be showcased in our upcoming email newsletter. |
