Being Thankful.


For each new morning with its light,
For rest and shelter of the night,
For health and food, for love and friends,
For everything Thy goodness sends.
~Ralph Waldo Emerson

Happy Thanksgiving for those who celebrates it and a wonderful day for those who don't.

We do not have such a celebration, and may be this is the reason we seem to be so forgotten...
