“Lazy hands make a man poor, but diligent hands bring wealth.” Proverbs 10:4I came across this Scripture and wanted to pass it along. I love it because it reminds me of my parents and the work ethic they instilled in all of us kids. If you want something, you go out and work for it.
No one owes you anything, and I’m embarrassed to be in a generation that doesn’t have that mindset.
Honest, hard work, is the only way to do it right. Don’t rely on anyone to provide for you.
The world doesn’t owe you anything!
Can you guess? Can you guess which advocate for the work ethic posted this?
Yep, Bristol Palin!
Bristol Palin, who I'm pretty sure has never done an honest day's work in her life, posted this scolding of America's youth for not being hard-working enough.
Irony is dead.
Roll this sentence around in your noggin for a second:
I love it because it reminds me of my parents and the work ethic they instilled in all of us kids.
Really. Your parents? YOUR parents?
Okay, I don't know much about your dad, but your mom instilled a work ethic in you? When was that? Was it while she was pissing off the McCain team by refusing to do the debate prep or do her homework before interviews, or learn anything?
Maybe it was when she quit her job halfway through for reasons that she never could make entirely clear.
Or maybe when she had FOX build a studio in her house so she could toss her word-salads without even having to drive down to the local affiliate.
And whatever work ethic your parents instilled in you, I'm not sure it really took. Because when have you ever done anything that could be described as "work?"
No one owes you anything, and I’m embarrassed to be in a generation that doesn’t have that mindset.
Honest, hard work, is the only way to do it right. Don’t rely on anyone to provide for you.
Yeah, honest, hard work! It's just disgusting how many of today's young people will just sit around expecting to be given reality TV shows just because they're related to someone famous!
Or how many kids just expect to be paid money to promote abstinence just because they're unwed teenage mothers!
Or how these darn kids today just think that they should be handed book deals just because their mothers give Bill Kristol a chubby.
Irony is dead and Bristol Palin just pissed on its corpse.
