For All Those Who Work Hard Every Day: Working Man By Rush


Next week will be May 1 again.  Not only will it be my fourth brother's birthday but it celebrates Labor Day, a non-working holiday where employees get a break from the daily grind to relax and spend time with friends and family.  Speaking of work, a lot of us no matter where we're employed work hard day in and day out to provide a better future for our love ones.  It gets tough out there but we do what we can because for our dreams and the people who depend on us.  A good song for those who work hard everyday is Rush's "Working Man".

No matter what profession we are in, we all work hard.  Some do so for the money while others do because they love what they do.  They get up really early to make it to work on time and once they arrive, they start the job at once.  No matter how difficult the job, they don't complain and keep at it until it's done.  When the day is over, they have a brew or two to wind down before calling it a day.

Not every job is equal with some paying more or offering extra benefits which some of the lucky ones are able to land.  Others just work hard and try to do some things on the side just to earn a little to make ends meet.  Still we all work as hard as we can not only for income but because work defines who we are and though it may not be our dream job, it still gives us some dignity.  When May 1 comes along, let's wind down a bit for we deserve it after a hard time working.  After that, it's back to the daily grind as we continue our pursuit of prosperity and security.
