Housework is an Investment in a Home (Housework Sayings by JenExx)

HOUSEWORK IS AN INVESTMENT IN A HOME:
When something is spent, it is gone, but with an investment something can be gained. When a housewife invests herself whole-heartedly into daily housework tasks she gains a clean home, not only for herself but for her family; she also gains a sense of purpose when she sees the value from her investment when it creates a better life for everyone in the home. The time a housewife invests in housework is never wasted or lost when the end result is an improvement.
