I've been out for a year. It's been a very hard grind trying to find a job.

I'm now trying to work as a consultant - it's my version of mowing a lawn.

"Mow a lawn" is not just the act of mowing, it's more the act of creating one's own position in life.

I think you've got it.

However, I would also add.... that we grant this right of...."creating one's own position in life" fully to our children, who might not just think of "their position" in merely economic terms....

.....and, I would add, that as adults, we try and see that our manner of "creating" leave a fully human "field" of opportunity for the future, for we are so much more than mere "economic" entities.
