This is Ronnie's second in a series of talks exploring the Book of Ecclesiastes alongside the work of Viktor Frankl.
"Work - what you do - is essential to finding meaning in life. I did not say that work IS the meaning of life. No. But when our attitude is attuned, work can be a source of great satisfaction. As the proverb is told: 'Find something you love to do, and you will never work a day in your life.' That doesn’t mean every day will be easy. We are not so naive. It won’t always be 'fun.' Meaningful work is hard work - but it’s meaningful. So, every job, every bit of work, if it incorporates the skills a person has, it meets the needs of others, and it is pursued with chutzpah and gusto - it is impossible for that work not to matter. It has to be meaningful - for every one it touches."
