    Essay On The Dignity of Work

    According to a common belief, God sends everyone in this world with


    two hands and a hidden trait that is his real treasure to serve others with,
    in addition to earning his own livelihood. He expects everyone to work hard
    and contribute to the progress of the country and the well-being of others
    by working continuously and joyfully. And this demands ‘Labour’, that is
    not to be shirked or avoided under any circumstances.Those who love it rise
    in life, but those who despise labour remain static and lag behind to shed
    tears, later on. A laborious man is honest and persevering. He lives a hard
    life, earns very little money-but can look at any man in the face, for he
    owes no one anything.He may not be rich, and may be forced to struggle
    each day to survive, but he is a real hero in the battle of life. Contentment
    and satisfaction are assured for him.

    Abraham Lincoln, the famous U.S. President, commented that if God did
    not want us to work, he would have given us no hands. Truly, it is only
    through toil and sweat that man can get things done. We would have no
    food, if farmers did not work hard in sun and in shower.
    We would have had no houses, if construction workers had not carried
    heavy loads to erect the building. Work is, indeed, necessary for every good
    thing achieved. And can you expect a good result in the examination, if you
    take your studies lightly and fail to burn the mid night oil? Hence, never
    look down upon a labourer, or express disgust at someone’s job.

    Treat any type of work as worship and do it whole-heartedly. We should


    not feel ashamed to perform little tasks. Helping mother in the kitchen,
    dusting the house, fetching groceries, or handing a spanner to father, while
    he repairs a bicycle, are simple tasks that should form part of our daily
    routine. Do not despise to keep the class neat and tidy, or to plant a
    sapling.

    Many people wrongfully shy away from helping others merely because they
    consider the job below their dignity. There is no disgrace in helping a
    teacher to carry books, or lifting a load for a labourer or helping a blind
    man cross the road, or playing with a weeping child to keep him in good
    humour. No work is inferior and so no person, who himself does any work,
    is to be looked down upon.

    Having servants at home should not prevent us from performing simple


    tasks, or from treating servants with dignity. There is false pride in
    believing that labourers are to be despised upon and that work is only for
    the unfortunate.
