Here is a little piece on work, by Kahlil Gibran. I find it beautiful and reassuring.
My soul took me to task and told me: 'Do not rejoice at praise and do not despair at reproaches.'
Before my soul gave me this advice I was doubtful about the value of my work.
Now I understand that trees flower in the spring and bear fruit in the summer without seeking praise.
And they let their leaves fall in the autumn and become bare in the winter without fearing blame.
Namaste!
