Happiness, is what we need and it comes to us mostly through _____

Directions: Read the given passage and answer the following question:

We, sometimes think that it would be very nice if we had no work to do. How we envy rich people who do not have to work for their living, but can do just what they please all the year round. Yet when we think so, we make a mistake. Sometimes rich people are not as happy as we think because they are tired of being idle. Most of us are happy when we have regular work to do for our living, especially if the work is what we like doing. The first thing that work gives to us is happiness. It gives us self respect. The idler, however, rich he is, lives on the work of others. But the honest worker, who earns his living by useful toil, can hold up his head and respect himself. Last, not the least, regular work helps to build up character. It teaches us such good habits as punctuality, carefulness, thoroughness and faithful in work.
