One week from today…
…we in the U.S. will celebrate Thanksgiving. I’m sure there are many who feel that this year there is not much to give thanks for what with the condition of the economy, troops still in Iraq, and health care costs spiraling out of sight. However, I was brought up with the philosophy that you should be thankful for what you have because there is always someone with less.
Next Thursday, as the day enfolds, take stock not of your trials, but of your blessings, whatever they may be. For some, the simple blessings of a roof over their head and food to eat can mean the world. Try to be thankful for what you have and try not to dwell on what you don’t have.
Life is short, enjoy the good, overlook the bad, and give thanks just to be alive.
Happy Thanksgiving Day to one and all!
