27、I grew up the “baby” of my family. I was the youngest of three sons in my family. My brothers were five and seven years older than me and did with most of the housework that my mom and dad needed to do around the house. I spent most of my time riding my bike, playing basketball, walking in the woods, or reading books on the sofa. Those days, I spent my time with all the fun and none of the responsibility（责任）.

When I was 15 years old, however, both of my brothers had moved out of our home. My dad hurt his back and couldn’t work. We had moved to a mountain top house. I soon found myself then doing more work than I had ever done before. I planted our garden in spring and mowed（收割）the grass in summer. In autumn I carried and collected wood to keep us warm in the winter months to come. And all year round I carried water from a mountain stream back to our house so we could have water to drink and cook with.

At first I complained to myself. After a while, though, I began to find happiness in helping my parents that I loved so much. I sang to myself while I collected wood and smiled while I carried water. I even found myself helping my mom with the dinner dishes and cleaning. I started to realize something that I would carry with me the rest of my life too. When the work is done in love, it isn’t work.

Let all of your work be done in love then. Let all that you do be done in love. Let all of your life be lived with love.
