HOUSEWORK IS AN ACT OF THANKFULNESS:
Housework isn’t just cleaning; housework is a physical act of being thankful for everything a housewife has. To have housework is to have a house, and to have a house is to make a home; to have laundry is to have clothes; to have dirty dishes is to have food; to have toilets to clean is to have indoor plumbing. A housewife can grumble through housework, or she can give thanks for everything she has, including housework.
