Been Busy
this week has been pretty good. i talked myself into getting a table at the local farm toy and doll show. i think i can put together an inventory quick enough to look respectable. ill be selling fence sections, gate sections, some cute water tanks the same scale as the fences. i want to have 10 rubber band paddle boats and i need to put the finishing touches on about 10 cars yet... and just for fun i am doing 5 magic wands... and oh yea, its firewood season again. we have about a quarter put away but a lot of work to do yet.

Do you find a joyful satisfaction in being busy with honest work?
ReplyDeleteI have found such myself, but only in short doses because my work only remains honest in short doses before lack of discipline leads me astray. I pray that such discipline will come and that the joy will persist; that it is not mere novelty!
Joyful is such a strong emotion to associate with work, even a hobby... i feel satisfaction with a project completed, pride with a job well done, happiness when a child reacts to a new favorite toy. discipline is nothing more than working towards a goal. if the goal is worthy enough the discipline will follow...
ReplyDeleteThanks for the advice. The last sentence particularly intrigues. It is an idea that I will be keeping in mind. In fact, I'm writing it down.
