Blessings into burdens?

The sermon in church on Sunday really made me think. I sometimes wonder if that man at the pulpit can see right through me and know each and every thing that I have thought and done. Too often, we who are blessed, make our blessings into burdens. We take the things that are so precious and turn them into jobs. I wonder if someday we will be held accountable for all the pleasures we have failed to enjoy. It says that somewhere in the Talmud. My dear husband, parents, children and even my home are some of those precious things in my life that I have done that with from time to time, and I am so sorry. 
With the holidays upon all of us, we are busy and hurried all the time. It is easy to make even the simplest thing into a huge job that takes all your time and energy. I think it is time to sit back and enjoy what I have and forget the rest. There really isn't much I can do about most of it anyway except worry my heart out, and what good is that going to do. I need to allow God to turn my weaknesses and wounds into a source of blessings for others.
