A quick definition of work:

Work is when you use your body or mind to do something for someone else, usually for your boss. It can be physical or mental. Sometimes, you might have to do extra work that wasn't originally planned. There are different types of work, like heavy work that involves lifting heavy things, or sedentary work that involves sitting down a lot. Work can also refer to things like art, music, or writing that someone creates and owns the rights to. When you work on something, you put in effort to make it happen, like when you study for a test or practice a sport.

A more thorough explanation:

Work is physical or mental effort put in to achieve a goal, usually for an employer. It can also refer to additional work that is required due to changes in plans or specifications, or work that involves lifting and carrying heavy objects. Work can be classified as heavy, light, medium, sedentary, semi-skilled, skilled, unskilled, or very heavy. Work can also refer to an original expression in a fixed or tangible form that may be entitled to copyright protection. Examples of works include art, literature, music, and software.

  • John works at a factory, where he operates heavy machinery and lifts heavy objects.
  • Jane works as a writer, where she creates original content for her employer.
  • The construction company had to do additional work to meet the performance goals under the contract.
  • The artist's work was displayed in a gallery for people to admire.

The examples illustrate the different meanings of the term "work". The first two examples show work as physical or mental effort put in to achieve a goal, while the third example shows work as additional work required due to changes in plans or specifications. The fourth example shows work as an original expression in a fixed or tangible form that may be entitled to copyright protection.

Nah, the fucked up thing about therapists is they try and make you think your parents are your enemy 99% of the time and really they should be telling you that your parents have almost no effect on the rest of your life. If they can get you to keep focusing on your parents they can keep making money.

Yeah, my life really does flow in about 5 years periods.
