I've been thinking about the past for the last few days. Many things popped into my head, and most were of the things that will never happen again. That, and how life leads to places never considered in the past, and the blessings bestowed.
Every Thanksgiving has been a blessing. All were shared with family, and all had a meal that guaranteed I wouldn't be hungry on that day. That alone is enough, but with loved ones around to share the event, it was a glorious day to contemplate the good things, have a laugh, and lounge with a full stomach.
Happy Thanksgiving to all that visit, and my you have one of the best days of your life.
And to you and yours, Jess. I lost my big sis unexpectedly earlier this month, so your post struck home. Every day is a blessing and we always have the memories of those who have gone before us. Happy Thanksgiving.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to hear that. Missing family leaves a big hole.

ReplyDeleteWe had nine at the feast, but missed four family members out of town.
