The book I'm reading asks the question - Looking back over your life what brought you joy? I had to think - I'm so busy I don't reflect often enough so it was a challenge.

What does or has brought me joy? The first thing I thought of was Christmas. But then, what about Christmas? Family, friends, entertaining. I've loved Christmas since I was a child - the decorations, lights, family, preparing meals together, vacation (no school), all with a central purpose - to celebrate Jesus. Different than other holidays or vacation time - Christmas has a purpose. I love family and friends together anytime, but Christmas is special.

Anyway, that's as far as I got searching my brain for what brings me joy! Giving it some more thought for sure.
