Duty Was Joy
When I think of the word duty and how performing our duty can enrich our lives and the lives of others, I recall the words penned by a renowned poet and author:
I slept and dreamt
That life was joy
I awoke and saw
That life was duty
I acted and behold
Duty was joy.
Robert Louis Stevenson put it another way. Said he, “I know what pleasure is, for I have done good work.”
