Being thankful

The turkey dinner is great and I love to cook.  Thanksgiving means much more to me than just the cranberry sauce, home made sausage stuffing, green bean casserole, and of course the pumpkin and apple pies.  It is a time to be with family, to share an unhurried day with your loved ones.  It can mean helping a family have that turkey dinner that they wouldn't be able to afford on their own.  It means being thankful for what you have... family, friends, health, happiness, comforts.  Being thankful is what it is all about and giving others something to be thankful for.  Hope, a smile, a meal, a warm coat, but on top of that,  something that can change their lives.  Show them, teach them, help them.  If you have been reading my blog you have the tool.  Go out there and give another family something to be thankful for.
