Today, when we say that we want freedom and security, what we mean is that we want an appropriate, mediating balance between them. Indeed, it is extremely dangerous to entertain the idea that one is ever more important than the other.James Shelly

Equality does not mean we all share the same capabilities, it means we are all worth the same regardless of our drastically unequal capabilities. It is because we are so radically unequal in ability, background, and opportunity that treating one another as identical bearers of intrinsic worth is so important.James Shelly

But what do you do when the grasshoppers feel entitled to the work of the ants? Or the grasshopper thinks it can do the work of the ant and vice-versa?[/fusion_builder_column][/fusion_builder_row][/fusion_builder_container]

Do what you love?

But if everyone’s job was simply to “do what they love”, who would collect garbage, work as a cashier, do data-entry or any other job that doesn’t seem as soul fulfilling? Those aren’t even lesser jobs either, they’re just jobs. Doing what you love for a job is awesome, but not mandatory or valued above anything else.Paul Jarvis
