The Joy Of Work

A young boy has been told to wash up the dishes for the family. He is complaining bitterly because he would much rather be outside, playing with his friends. But there is nothing to be done, so sighing loudly and dramatically and muttering under his breath how unfair it all is, he starts to fill the sink with water and suds.

A shaft of sunlight comes through the kitchen window - and the water is transformed to liquid light, the bubbles are all beautiful spheres with many rainbows, dancing.

The boy is fascinated and begins his work, and not much later, he can be heard singing as one shiny clean plate after the next joins the others on the drying rack.
