work not only for material life but also for many other things. We are working to prove our
ability. We feel self- confident and proud because we are independent. Anyone who works is
regarded as a useful member of society. We’re working, that means we’re contributing to our
country. Working helps us train our minds because we always try our best to do the job.

working, a man’s life will be empty, purposeless and meaningless and it’s easy for a jobless
person to do wrongs.
