What a wonderful week it's been! I started a new job gift wrapping at Von Maur and I am really loving it. What I've learned while wrapping and fellow shipping with the women I work with is that loving what you do makes a huge impact. The joy that I've experienced in the week I've been there is so refreshing. I've been able to enjoy my shifts because of the attitude of my coworkers. I am one of the "young ones", most of the ladies could easily be my mom.. it's fun to see how seasoned wrappers keep their cool when the gift line gets full and they just seem to enjoy the gift they are on without rushing and they help me keep perspective when it's felt overwhelming.. how I admire their patience.
Enjoying this time of year when life is rushing around us at high speeds seems impossible some days, but what I have been reminded is that taking time to enjoy the moment regardless of the demands is what's most important. Every moment matters! So savor each moment with your family, enjoy the shopping, the wrapping, and breath deep the joy of this remarkable season!
