To Do Lists and Entering Heaven

  Summer Break:  

Finally taking some time to myself to rest. Why am I so driven by "to do" lists? When I die, St. Peter won't deny me entrance to Heaven because I left something undone. He won't say, "Sorry, but that table you wanted to paint is still in your garage. Your filing cabinet still has stacks of papers on it. And, that nap you took? Well, since that was like experiencing heaven itself, we'll have to deduct that..." He will smile, open wide the gate and tell me to join the saints. All because I'm a teacher and there are no "to do" lists in Heaven!

"His master said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a little; I will set you over much. Enter into the joy of your master.’" -- Mt 25:21
