As the days get shorter and cooler, what a wonderful way to celebrate this season!
How we each celebrate will be unique. We are all wonderfully different. It can be a time to open up our homes to family and friends. It could also be a time for relaxing and enjoying a simple meal. Who knows, it could even be a time for a planned adventure somewhere else completely.
Wherever you end up, may you be surrounded and filled by the sights, smells and sounds of Thanksgiving. I pray that this will be a time for you to pause and think with a heart of gratitude.
As I think about this myself, my heart just fills up. I feel so blessed and grateful to have been given the family and friends that I have. I also am grateful for my life and being able to do what I love and being able to share it with all of you.
There have been so many moments during this one day that made my heart smile. For starters, I woke up this morning. This was a gift of another day and after the rain yesterday... Oh my goodness! Today was glorious! The sun was shining, gorgeous blue skies, beautiful white clouds and a fresh crispness in the air that had to be experienced. It was
a perfect day not to be passed up and called for a walk at the lake, which we did!
There is so much to be grateful for, even if at times one has to put some thought into it. However, the more you think about it and look, the more you will start to see and find those moments.
This weekend and the week ahead is a wonderful time to do so. I am looking forward to hearing from you about what grateful moments you have and how much more you can uncover.
May your heart dance with gratitude, joy and memories that you can cherish and keep with you always.
Join me in putting gratitude on our daily menu to share and pass around.
