Dreams Quote by Christy Wright
““Three bricklayers were working on the same building. When asked what they were doing, the first answered grumpily, “I’m laying bricks.” The second replied with a bit more vision, “I’m putting up a wall.” The third bricklayer’s response was different. He replied enthusiastically and with pride, “I’m building a beautiful cathedral. It will be the finest building in town, and it will be a place of peace and comfort for everyone who walks by it!” What a difference knowing why makes. When you know why you do it, even the most mundane work can become meaningful.””
