Defining Work

Amy Scott shares this insightful observation:

"Things aren't work unless you'd rather be doing something else."

Physicists, of course, define work as moving mass, which is true no matter which mass you are moving or why. But Mrs. Scott's definition fits the human heart well, and reinforces what I believe about our coming experience in heaven -- there will be work for us to do, but we won't call it that.
