it's Turkey time again - that day of the year when I remember how desperately I need to renew my desire for a healthy diet.
Also that time of year when I take a few minutes to reflect on how many things I am thankful for... last year (if I remember correctly) I did a whole ABCs of thankfulness.... that was a lot of things.
You know what - I don't need that many this year. Not that I'm having bitterness and resentment or anything. I think I'm just as thankful this year....
I've just learned (remembered) one important detail:
It's all thanks to God. Every little thing I have that is good - Every person that touches my life - Every personal achievement - Everything. It's all thanks to Him.
This Thanksgiving I'm going to focus on seeing His hands and how they have touched my life. How they have brought me to where I am, who I'm with... and you know what - I'm pretty happy with all of that. I might whine - I might complain - I might annoy you as much as Bella Swan annoys any guy that tries to read those Twilight books... but I like life - it's been pretty good to me all around.
Happy Thanksgiving to all of you - with the sincere hope that life is treating you well also!
I hope you have an amazing Thanksgiving. I'm sure I'm on that list of things you are thankful for.
ReplyDeleteWonderful. I love the concept of what hands can do and how we use our hands -- I've been a little preoccupied with that as well lately. A lot of hands have helped me over the years, and I am enjoying being in the position to return the favor a little bit. So count me in on your Thanksgiving Crusade and have a happy one!
ReplyDeleteHappy Thanksgiving!!
ReplyDeleteI totally agree. What a great resolution and I hope I can do the same.
ReplyDeleteWhat an uplifting message. Happy Thanksgiving and enjoy those black friday sales!
ReplyDeleteI don't think you ever quite make it to Bella level....
ReplyDeleteNice reminder. Happy turkey day to you!
Your words here remind me, again, of all that I have, all that I am. And I am grateful.
ReplyDeleteHappy Thanksgiving!
I'm thankful I met you this year!
