From "The Story Factor" by Annette Simmons


A man came upon a construction site where three people were working.
He asked the first, "What are you doing?: and the man answered, "I am
laying bricks."  He asked the second, "What are you doing?" and the
man answered, "I am building a wall."  He walked up to the third man,
who was humming a tune as he worked and asked, "What are you doing?"
and the man stood up and smiled and said, "I am building a cathedral."

This story reminds me to look at the big picture when I feel the lack
of purpose, meaning, and inspiration to endure my everyday struggles.
