Still more, there is
sometimes backbreaking and dangerous labor, or
tedious and boring
work, that must be done if we or our loved ones are to live, but the language of vocation imbues such
work with a kind of meaning and significance that may seem unbelievable to those who must actually do it.
Yet it is a laborious and
sometimes tedious journey beset with very real and practical issues of pacing and character development (respectable
work on both fronts is lacking).
