A
When I was 12, I got a part-time job on a dairy farm, milking cows. We milked 65 cows twice a day. One day, I complained to my father about having to milk those cows, saying it was tiring. He said, “you know, boy, to work is a blessing.” I looked at the men who’d worked harder. I had a feeling I had been told something really important, but it took many years before it sunk in.
Back then, going to college was a rare privilege. My father told me if I’d picked something to study that I liked doing, I’d always look forward to my wort he also added, even having a job you hate is better than not having a job at all. I wanted to be a farmer, but I joined a military program to help pay for college. And what started out as an obligation to the Army became a way of life that I stayed committed to for 37 years.
In the late 1980s, during a visit to Bangladesh, I saw a woman with her baby on her back, breaking bricks with a hammer. I asked a local officer why they weren’t using a machine to make the work easier. He told me a machine would put that lady out of work. And as bad as that woman’s job was, it was enough to keep a small family alive. It reminded me of my father’s words: to work is a blessing.
After seeing a lot of people like that woman in Bangladesh, I’ve come to believe that people without jobs are not free. They’re victims of crime, poor health, and depression. People who have jobs can have a home, send their kids to school, develop a sense of pride, contribute to the good of the community and even help others. When we can work, we are free. We are blessed.

Which tablet computer should YOU be buying? They are this year’s must… and there’s a style to suit everyone.
Best for Young Children
LeapPad Explorer 2, £68
Aimed at children between three and nine (though a nine-year-old might find it a little simple), it comes in pine and with five built-in education games (you can buy more). Besides, the LeapPad does not allow access to the Internet — so it is impossible for your child to stumble across anything inappropriate.
Pros: The education games are well-designed and the built-in video camera is a fun way to play at being a film director.
Cons: Some of the games are shockingly expensive. And the power adaptor is not included. Best for Teenagers
iPad 4th generation, £399~£659
The iPad is still the market leader, and for good reason. If the teenager in your house enjoys playing computer games, the latest offering from Apple is the one to choose.
Pros: No other tablets can compete with the near one million “app” (the name Apple created for specially-designed downloadable programs) available for the iPad. Simple to use, even for those who usually struggle with technology.
Cons: Considerable more expensive than most competitors.
