They worked hard cutting trails and cutting trees during the day but were able to eat as much as they wanted,

'Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might'.

I'm big on that concept. Even if it's dumping trash. I'm commanded to, actually.

And I'm ok with feeding kids or hired hands, or cows treading grain as much as they want. Kcals in = Kcals out, minus the biological overhead.

That is such a wonderful saying:

Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might, for in the grave, where you are going, there is neither working nor planning nor knowledge nor wisdom.

What has happened to the work ethic? what has happened to the joy in accomplishment?
