Morning Briefings

When you find a vocation, embrace it with your whole heart. Few people are so lucky. They begin their search for work with an eye to the wrong prize, so when they succeed they win something of little value. They gain money or prestige, but they lose their hearts. Eventually, their days become nothing more than a commodity they exchange for money and they begin to shrivel and die.
