Meaningful Times

Times of fruitfulness.

I like being busy.

I like working.

Ironically (or not so?), every time I find myself in front of a computer to work, I end up playing facebook games or just generally wasting time. Reading blogs, articles people posted, etc.

I have a deadline coming up for work and when I had to sit down and crunch through it (I'm a little more than halfway through now), for some odd reason, I was happy.

Deep down inside, something (me, but not me?) rejoiced. Funny word to use, but apt in this case.

It reminded me of the verse in Ecclesiastes:

"I know that there is nothing better for men than to be happy and do good while they live. That everyone may eat and drink, and find satisfaction in all his toil - this is the gift of God."

It's that ridiculous quote: "Happiness is not a destination, but a journey." or whatever.

So hackneyed, but so true. :)
