Each post represents a dream, a personal story, a literal piece of their Life.&lt;p&gt;For many of us, perhaps the majority of us, that means grinding at the mine during the day, returning home after perhaps a long commute, spending time with and cooking for our family, our significant other, etc... then, clocking back in at 9:00pm or 10:00pm to bring it for the next several, precious hours, working to make the dream real... then catching some sleep, waking up and turning around and dropping the hammer all over again.&lt;p&gt;It&amp;#x27;s just something to remember as you comment to someone about their work.</text><parent_chain><item><author>rickhanlonii</author><text>Great work!

For me that strikes the right balance - I might find things I&amp;#x27;m not enthusiastic about, but I&amp;#x27;d weight my words carefully.</text><parent_chain><item><author>rickhanlonii</author><text>Great work!
