So here we are at another years end...first Thanksgiving, then Christmas and finally 2012. Wow did it go fast.
I went to Henri's today and the parking lot was crazy, lots and lots of shoppers for there Thanksgiving feast. The mad holiday rush has began.
I like to think of Thanksgiving as the time of year to reflect and enjoy the company of friends and family. I don't really get onto the whole "lots of food" type thing. A nice meal with friends is more than enough. I find myself thinking a whole lot about the word "gratitude" during this time of year. And it is with that thought that I would like to say I am grateful to everyone for all they do for me, for others and the world. I know I don't tell my Friends and family enough but I am now, thank you from the bottom of my heart.
In the rush of the holidays we may find ourselves overwhelmed with what society says the holidays to be. I try to ignore the glamour, advertising and the all out craziness of what was once a very honorable time of year. I live in the pay it forward mindset and I know all those in my life do exactly the same. It feels good doesn't it? We all get what we give. Life is just an endless circle.
May you all have a peaceful and restful holiday.
With much love
Jennifer
To my surprise, I came back to your blog hoping for another entry... and so happy to find it! Yay!
ReplyDeleteWell, thank you for making my holidays even more special... I appreciate all you do for me and my family. I feel like I have so much to learn from you and am grateful for your wisdom.
Keep up the writing... by the way, not sure if it's just me but I'm having a hard time reading the cursive without straining... must be the new way (they don't teach cursive nowadays)... maybe it's your way of filtering out those who really aren't interested. Either way, it's good practice for me but makes my eyes work harder.
Anyways, love ya! Tori
Hey Tori girl...see I fixed the font all by myself without your help! Hope it reads better.
ReplyDeleteThanksgiving was wonderful with you, Billy, and that beautiful baby girl.
You are wonderful!
Love ya
Jennifer
