Thanksgiving, 2008 in the USA is a day when we count our blessings. It is a day of recognition for all we have and all we've experienced during the past year. It is a day of being exceedingly grateful for all the wonderful family members and friends who still grace our lives and who bring meaning into each day.
In the hectic pace of commerce, the child rearing, the hobbies and sports, and all the tasks of living, we frequently remember to simply say thank you.
Thank you to our lover, partner, spouse and friend for all they give us in life. All the tenderness, compassion, care and concern. The little things that mean so much like when you're ill and they're there for you. Or when you just need a shoulder to cry on or an ear to hear the entire story just so you can get past it.
Thank you to your other family members and friends who always seem to know when you really need a friend and they either appear or call just when necessary.
Thank you to your little ones who make life so special. They always seem to keep us laughing.
The reason we take time to celebrate and recognize and thank all those whom we love, is because they will ultimately come a time when they aren't around to thank. And a life without regrets is simply the best way to live.
With gratefulness on this special day for all those I love and who love me...
