Back Again

Why do you go to work each day? I know it is because you love what you do (or it should be and if you don't life is too short and you should find something different) but what keeps you going? For me it is my family - I love my wife and three kids very deeply. Over the last fave days I got much closer to them. My two year old came home with the flu and was nice enough to share it with her one year old brother and then with dad - what a great daughter. The point to my story is I took three days off to help them get healthy. Did I get stressed due to lots to do at work - you bet, but if I can't take time to spend with the reason I work so hard now, when will I?
