I’m Thankful for You
Thanksgiving is the appointed time
for focusing on the good in our lives.
In each of our days,
we can find small blessings,
but too often we overlook them,
choosing instead to spend our time
paying attention to problems.
We give our energy
to those who cause us trouble
instead of those who bring peace.
Starting now,
let’s be on the lookout
for the bits of pleasure in each hour,
and appreciate the people who
bring love and light to everyone
who is blessed to know them.
You are one of those people.
On Thanksgiving,
I’m thankful for you.
Happy Thanksgiving!

Hello sweet Lady,
I love that poem! I'd like to have a copy of it.I hope your Holiday was the best it could be, being seperated from some of your children on a Holiday I'm sure is no fun. Hope you had a great Black Friday with your daughters.
Say a prayer for my Dad -he is very sick in the Hospital-Just mention Poppy if you can!
Be blessed!
I read you everyday whether I comment or not!!
