I think it's partly about the motivation: if it's for pay or because you have to do it it's work even if you enjoy it, and if it's an activity chosen for the fun of it, it's leisure. Or maybe it's leisure if you would still choose the activity even if you weren't paid? Hard to say. Sometimes a leisure activity suddenly becomes drudgery/work when I start getting paid for it. Cooking isn't often leisure for me, that I know for sure. Although occasionally I enjoy it. And blogging isn't work, because I enjoy it and it does not give me any income. And jewelry-making is definitely leisure even though I occasionally make money from it and it's definitely work:) I think we can give thanks for those times when we can't tell if an activity is work or leisure, because that means we're enjoying our work!Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14559109949774288379noreply@blogger.com
