Methinks the absolute best thing
about Thanksgiving is seeing our
families!
We tend to live so far apart in this
incredibly amazing world of ours.
Christmas often brings the gift of
harsh weather, but Thanksgiving
provides a time when we can
safely gather.
'Tis the best part of Fall . . . the
entire TG weekend. We catch up,
tell tales out of school, make
future plans, eat amazing food,
and sometimes, even go shopping.
I find that Thanksgiving serves
as a reminder of all those things
for which I wish to express my
gratitude. First and foremost . . .
my family.
There is nothing like family in
the entire world. No matter our
differences, albeit philosophy,
religion, politics. Obviously,
our different experiences have
shaped us and led us in different
directions. Still I find within the
familial circle, the love shared
dissipates any and all animosity
created by our differences.
I actually enjoy hearing my
adult children share their own
experiences that have led them
to the point in which they find
themselves. Both interesting
and entertaining, although
sometimes sad.
One thing I would like to take
a peek at, would be the actual
historical beginnings of this
familial holiday. Studied in
our youth, needing a brush up.
so thankful for you
loving family of mine
ever in my heart
