| Long ago, Emperson wrote "A man's task is his life-preserver." This seems to be remarkably correct in our modern life. The man without task is like a ship without a ballast and anchor, he is all too often merely a drifter. Few men seem to have initiative enough to choose a task for themselves if they do not need to work. When the inevitable disappointments come, as they assuredly will, they are completely overwhelmed. But the man who has his task has no time for vain regret, he escapes the disastrous fate, which overtakes his less fortunate brother. Work is one of the greatest safety-valves, which was ever invented and youth especially needs it. |
