The Carpenter<br />
Author<br />
An elderly carpenter was ready to<br />
retire. He told his employer/contractor<br />
of his plans to leave the house-building<br />
business and live a more leisurely life<br />
with his wife, enjoying his extended<br />
family. He would miss the paycheque,<br />
but he needed to retire. They could<br />
get by.<br />
The contractor was sorry to see his<br />
good worker go, and asked if he could<br />
build just one more house as a personal<br />
favour. The carpenter said yes, but in<br />
time it was easy to see that his heart<br />
was not in his work. He resorted to<br />
shoddy workmanship and used inferior<br />
materials.<br />
It was an unfortunate way to end his<br />
career. When the carpenter finished his<br />
work and the builder came to inspect<br />
the house, the contractor handed the<br />
front door key to the carpenter. “This<br />
is your house,”<br />

unknown<br />
he said, “my gift to you.”<br />
What a shock! What a shame! If he<br />
had only known he was building his<br />
own house he would have done it all<br />
so differently. Now he had to live in the<br />
home he had built none to well.<br />
So it is with us. We build our lives in<br />
a distracted way reacting rather than<br />
acting, willing to put up with less than<br />
the best. At important points we do not<br />
give the job our best effort. Then with<br />
a shock, we look at the situation we<br />
have created and find that we are now<br />
living in the house we have built. If we<br />
had realized that, we would have done<br />
it differently.<br />
Think of yourself as the carpenter.<br />
Think about your house. Each day you<br />
hammer a nail, place a board, or erect<br />
a wall, build wisely.<br />
It is the only life you will ever build.<br />
Even if you live it for only one day more,<br />
that day deserves to be lived graciously<br />
and with dignity.<br />
The plaque on the wall says, “Life is<br />
a do-it-yourself project.” Who could<br />
say it more clearly?<br />
Your life today<br />
is the result of<br />
your attitudes<br />
and choices in<br />
the past. Your life<br />
tomorrow will be<br />
the result of your<br />
attitudes and the choices you make<br />
today.<br />
