[QUOTE="herofan, post: 1505903, member: 17843"] Very good post. I have had the same thoughts, but you described it really well. My grandparents on both sides were farmers all their lives, and they experienced some true hard work and hard times during their lives. They always hoped my brother and I could have an easier path. “Easier” isn’t a dirty word when one had the experiences of working that they had. Heck, who wouldn’t wish their kids could have opportunities to give them a better way than truly breaking your back all your life; there is nothing romantic about it. I remember work-stories from my grandparents too, but they were usually told in a weary tone and far from bragging. I remember an old timer once saying that people who say they enjoy work and want to work all Time aren’t working too hard. [/QUOTE]
