All in a days work


Locals collecting bait off the rocks. What a relaxed life they have - no stress.

A mix of stress and relaxation is inherent to every human being. Sometimes, people with more "modern" jobs think that the lives of people working more close to nature to be more relaxed, but I doubt it. It is the same when adults think about their childhood and youth, but a permanent state of happiness is something impossible, even for babies: just think how much they have to cry. As adults we think about the worries of young people as nothing special, but that is not what they think.

Just by the picture I can imagin how hard it can be to collect bait that way. And, does it pay the effort?
Some of them seem to be youngsters, and at that age, in rich countries, they are still students.

It is a good photo, congratulations!

I think their stress would be whether they are able to get enough of what ever they are collecting for today - so I agree that there is probably stress. I don't believe their stress is anything like working in the corporate world though.

Thanks for visiting my blog.

I think they probably do have plenty of stress, just different from our type of stress.
