Thanksgiving
Thanksgiving is a great holiday!
It focuses our minds on our blessings rather than on our problems. It makes the heart glad for what we have been given, and it takes our minds off the burdens we all have.
Thanksgiving recognizes the giver as well as the gift.
It keeps it on the positive side.
In life of plenty and prosperity we seem to take everything for granted.How appreciative we should be for our blessings and what a wonderful thing is a holiday which focuses our attention on them.
Thanksgiving is therapy we all need to keep cognizant of the blessings and the beauty of living.
This year let's set aside a few minutes of the holiday to sit alone and think of the many things for which we should be thankful then this great holiday will have true meaning for us.

What Am I Thankful For?
What am I thankful for this year?
What blessings come to mind?
My dear friends and relations,
So loving and so kind.
Each time I see the sunrise
And the beauties of the day
The unexpected little joys
I find along the way.
What am I thankful for this year?
the small and furry things
The hope that keeps me going
The peace believing brings,
I have so much to thank God for,
I don't know where to start,
I only know He walks with me,
And lives within my heart.
