I Am Grateful

Thank you for allowing me into your life, even if it's just on occasion through these small stories I share. I'm immensely grateful.

With today being Thanksgiving in the U.S., my wish for you is that your heart is filled with great joy and gratitude. That you feel light, bright, and a deep sense of reverence. For those of you who I may not have yet met in person or spoken with face to face, I want you to know how glad I am that you're here. How wonderful it is to be a part of your journey and growth.

On this special day of thanks, please enjoy this beautiful song by my friends Karen Taylor Good and Stowe Daily, Grammy-nominated singer/songwriters from Nashville:

"I Am Grateful..."

From the bottom, top, and sides of my heart... I am grateful for each one of you.

Happy Thanks-Giving.

Love and Light,

Thankful. Grateful. Appreciate.

Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday.  When I think about the 3 words around this season, they are thankful, grateful, and appreciate.

It is the time of giving and receiving the most valuable gift we have…Love. Love comes in all sorts of packages, a phone call to a friend, a donation to the food bank, a card to a family member, a small meal or an enormous feast, a glance of understanding by your beloved, or the curling up of the kitties in your lap. These are the gifts of the heart of Thanks Giving.

Gathering with friends and loved ones around a meal can be an act of Grace. The laughter and stories and food and joy all create a rarified atmosphere. A place where time can become irrelevant, and memories become alive again.

Like this memory of my niece Tori 15 years ago when we made Martha Stewart worthy pumpkin pies!

 Or this post-turkey photo of 4 generations of our family with sweet squirmy nieces and nephews that we love so much!

In the past...
