For
my birthday recently, I received a necklace from a dear friend. It has two
round pieces of metal. The copper smaller circle simply says ~ be. The larger silver circle is engraved with
the words...
compassionate ~ kind ~ at
peace ~ thankful
happy ~ brave ~ strong ~
free ~ true
So
I have decided each day to choose to 'be'
one of those things & truly be
mindful of it. It has been a lovely way to go about my day. What I have found
that it is possible to have a cumulative affect if you begin with being
thankful. So in the spirit of Thanksgiving I pass my wish on to you. May you
always remember to be thankful ~ every day. We are truly blessed & choosing
to practice your gratitudes throughout the year is an amazing way to realize
this. Write down or reflect on three things you are thankful for each day (trying
not to repeat). This year, especially at Thanksgiving & thereafter, by reflecting
on our blessings, we are also honoring what it means to live in this country, a
country that even the Pilgrims knew to be like nowhere else ~ a blessing.
Happy Thanksgiving to you
& yours!
