I have to say as much as I love peace and calmness, today I felt very happy about how busy my life is right now. I have meetings with people pretty much everyother day, have a lot of things to do in not so much time, still have to call people back since last saturday but cant because the conversation requires at least an hour of privacy which I have not had so that's been pushed back. But again today for some reason I actually got the feeling that I love being busy, maybe not in general but for right now I am enjoying it.
I guess it just makes me feel like Im accomplishing something by working hard and getting things done. I honestly don't see it as "stressful" because it is something I love to do. The reason im extra busy these days is because of this retreat that I am helping out with . I've talked about it before how I volunteer at my church as a junior minister and the retreat is coming up. Again as busy as I am, and as many things as I have to get done in such a small amout of time......I love it. Because it's something that means a lot to me. I know what my retreat ment to me and how much I really enjoyed it, and so putting on these retreats for the students is important to me.
It's one of those things that takes forever, and a lot of energy and late nights and some all nighters at times but once you see the result you completely forget how hard or "stressful" it might have been to get there because it is always worth it to see how many kids actually get something amazing out of this retreat.
CHALLENGE: Continue to be thankful in your life especially to the small things in life. When there is something you love to do, dont let anyhting ruin the happiness you get from it even if it can be "stressful" at times...remember why it is that you love it.
