Tonight I spoke at Youth about being a blessing.
I was thinking about the lead up to Christmas and I want to be able to help out others.
I love Christmas and I love the meaning of Christmas.
I love being able to get together with the family and to celebrate.
Christmas for me means hope, Christmas means joy, and Christmas is a new beginning it’s about Jesus.
The true meaning of Christmas.
In November my thought was Random Acts of Kindness and I want to continue that thought into December.
So I thought about how we can be a blessing.
It could be a little thing, it could be buying a present for someone and placing it under a Christmas Tree for someone who may not receive a present.
It could be donating some food to a charity or helping out in the community.
It could also be a kind word to someone.
Random Acts of Kindness don’t need to be expensive at all.
Be a blessing this Christmas time.
Who could you bless this year?
Have a look around you this week and leading up to Christmas.

Embrace this season.

Are you starting to feel overwhelmed are you counting down the weeks/days to Christmas, is your to do list looking more like a novel?
Do you relate to any of these questions, I certainly do? As I write this I can feel the stress rising.
I want to do Christmas well, I want to enjoy the lead up to Christmas Day.
How can I do this though when I have a list of so many things that I need to do before the end of the school term as well?
I have been asking myself this for the last few weeks. I don’t want to be worn out, burnt out, or a big ball of mess on Christmas Day.

My plan for now is to take each day as it comes and to make the most of the day.
I will plan for each day and I will plan well including the time to just relax watch a DVD, read a book or listen to music.
At the moment I am managing this well.
Today I arrived home a bit earlier then the last few days and have decided that tonight I am going to take it easy.

I accomplished so much today and I am really pleased about it.

My life is rather busy at the moment I am working 5 days a week at 4 schools, I am also transitioning into a role which commences next year and also I want to have the time to spend with my family.

I really need to have my planner with me or I would be lost.

Be kind to yourself have those breaks when you need to.
Plan something nice to do after you finish a major task.
Enjoy this time of year, celebrate well.

Be a joy to be around.

Will share more soon.
