Dear Editor,
It is proper to man get some objective or purpose to everything he does. With work, what do we get? Firstly, an economic benefit that covers the actual needs and the family. But there are other objectives that deserve our attention.
With the work we can get the development of human capacity, the development and enhancement of the things that are the subject of work and we can provide service to others and society in general.
The work facilitates the exercise of certain human faculties and developing it, implementing some human virtues such as persistence or perseverance to complete the task it has begun, the order in the things of we use and tools of work, the generosity in the support we can be provided to other classmates, and other virtues. At work, the man gets its best realization.
In work we get a relationship between man and things, making them useful to serve. New things can be developed from existing materials, such as building furniture, houses, roads, etc. or it can be refined with added value, whether economic or cultural.
The use of material resources implies a sobriety test, making an effort to avoid wasting material or achieve the same resources, better service. Also necessary is a respect for things that claim finished products through a job well done.
And finally, work is a service that should be put in details of service to others and, in general, to society. One may ask what kind of work can serve to improve the recipient’s personal and can provide a better service.
For its part, the worker must not find the scuffles and nor fall into the professional gentrification.
A job well done with professional enthusiasm, dedication and spirit of service and beside improve as a person who performs it can have supernatural value to offer to God for others.
