From October - December I become heavily immersed in activities at www.brostl.org . We pull together the last of the toys and gifts for the 4,000 children we serve each Christmas. Everything else takes a back seat. Or at least doesn't get it's fair share of time.
Part of that problem is caused by lack of organization in my home and wanting to do it all.
The Journaling prompt for Lesson 7 in Pam Carriker's class on Creative Workshops addresses the issue of masks. You know, putting on the happy mask,when really you are everything but that. I know we all do that.
I find that when I'm busy doing one thing I'm yearning to do something else. I'm not sure that it means I'm not enjoying that particular moment or activity, but that I am failing to find balance, failing to prioritize, failing to be organized.
But whatever we decide or who we decide to be I will try to remember this paraphrased quote from John Jakes.
Be yourself. Above all, let who you are and what you believe, shine through in everything you do.
