What are you doing?

One of my favorites stories goes like this:

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.


In my work, I'm like the third guy. I wake up every day smiling because in my own way, I get to build a cathedral. It's about the bigger picture, the higher view, the life choices that have brought me to a place where every day I get to do what I truly love to do.

How about you? What are you doing?
