I’m not sure about this one Phil. I understand the sentiment. But I actually like the differences that work and play bring to my life. I love my job and I bring the whole of me to work. But the work environment provides me with opportunities to pursue that are not available to me in play…and visa versa. The differences provide variety of experience …and I like it that way. My comment back to MT is ” Find your own joy and wholly own it. It doesn’t matter that it’s nothing like someone elses.”
