Thanksgiving & Joy

Thanksgiving. It’s almost here. This year especially, people have asked me what I’m doing for Thanksgiving. For the longest time I didn’t have an answer other than that I would be thankful and would eat something somewhere. Simply being alive, having the opportunity eat, having choices about what to do for the day are things to be thankful for. This is the year my mother died, the 1st year neither of my parents will be with us for the holiday celebration. I’m thankful for all the years we were able to be with them.

I wish all of you a day of peace and gratitude.
