Labor Is Glorious
It's well known that labor is glorious. As a middle school student, I often do some labor activities in everyday life. For example, I clean the classroom and playground with my classmates at school. I cook dishes, wash clothes and tidy rooms at home. And in the community, I work as a volunteer to help the old or disabled.
By doing these, I've learnt some basic life skills to take care of myself. Besides, I have not only got a strong feeling of satisfaction but also become more and more independent and responsible.
All in all, labor creates a better life so let's take an active part in doing the daily labor.
