Happy Thanksgiving

I would like to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving. Greg Weldon wrote the Thanksgiving post that follows and I am posting it too because I find it expresses my feelings too.

Give Thanks … Everyday

I’m thankful for Mothers and Fathers, who give so much love, so willingly, and ask for so little …
I’m thankful for people who ‘get it’, and understand that love flows from within …
I’m thankful I finally ‘got it’ … with the help of some of those people …
I’m thankful for a soul mate, with whom to share and expand that love …
… you are the inamorato of my life …
I’m thankful for the innocence, the unconditional love, and the playful enthusiasm
of my children … may that never dissipate …
I’m thankful for those courageous enough to risk their very existence,
so that freedom and liberty may reign …
I’m thankful for America, and what it stands for …
I’m thankful for the warm heart and bountiful hearth of family … on holidays and on any day …
I’m thankful for sparkling blue oceans, above which the radiant sun can rise with a brilliance that
defies rational explanation …
I’m thankful for the waves … the ebb and flow captivates and harmonizes, bridging left brain
sensibilities with right-brain creativity …
I’m thankful for sultry sunsets, and the soulful sense of peace that they exude ...
I’m thankful for the trees rustling, the wind caressing, the squirrels scurrying, and the birds singing …
simple miracles of life …
’m thankful for the moon and stars … the celestial intrigue and endless mystery, reminding us to
remain humble …
I’m thankful for this time here, to enjoy ALL the things I have to be thankful for … and, thankful to
have been able to share these thoughts.
