Christmas

So latley I've been super busy (as usual) with a whole bunch of Christmas stuff. Kids club stuff, futures stuff, songsters stuff, work stuff, choir stuff etc... it has been really really stressfull and extra busy. I've been so busy that I havn't sat for a minuite and have been feeling extra stressed.
I have never been this busy at Christmas, its a new way of function that I have yet to get used to it. It had come to the point where I wondered why people were enjoying it becuase its just so busy! There is no time for yourself at all.
So while being stressed, I asked someone why they liked it. And though this question seemed to me as if it would have no answer, the responce I got was simple. The person told me they liked it simply because they were making people happy. Case closed, no questions asked, end of story.
This hit me kinda funny, somthing so obvious yet something I was so oblivious too. I wonder how I forgot about that. How on earth did I get so caught up in what I was doing that I forgot why I was doing it?! Honestly... what the heck was I thinking?
Anyway, I'm glad that person put it in perspective for me, beucase I was missing somthing important. I'm glad that now I have things back into perspective.
So next time I have to do somthing, I'll remember why I am doing it, and do it joyfully and willingly.
By the way Christmas is in 12 days!
Merry Christmas everyone!
