There is nothing wrong with hard work. All my life I have tried to be a hard worker, I actually enjoyed it and tried not complain. The last twenty years of my life I have really endeavoured to work hard. I also learned that all the hard work that I did formerly, now I am somewhat restricted because of my physical incapability, I did for the Glory of God and not for my own satisfaction.
