Listen to a sample episode of Our Sunday Talks,edited and adapted from Little Builders by Dorothy Grenside, published in 1916. Podcast Manuscript : Some people think it strange when I talk about the Joy of Work. They’ve begun to look on work as wearisome and dull, as something to be hurried over, so that they can get back to their games, TV, and relaxation. So, I feel compelled to keep repeating that work IS the Builder of Joy. Why? Because it is the Builder of those qualities which alone can bring you Joy, and therein lies its value. It is not so much the work you do that is of real importance, as the growth of Spirit that results from it — for whether you grow strong of purpose or feeble of will, depends upon the energy with which you labor, and not upon the kind of work that you may do. Therefore, you shouldn’t judge a person by whether the world has called them great or not, for some of the noblest of the world's great women and men have lived and died unnoticed.
