I Am Thankful!

We all will say those words "I Am Thankful" and I’m sure we mean it, but once you’ve come face to face with losing everything you’ve always been thankful for those words come alive with meaning that are beyond description.  For everyone reading this I want you all to know that I have done just that. 

I don’t begin to understand all that this life is supposed to mean or even our purpose, but in my ignorance and humbleness there is an overwelming feeling within to express outward thanksgiving.  I don’t know what tomorrow will bring but in this moment and this day I am at peace and I wish the same for everyone of my fellow travelers on this earth.

    Beautiful thoughts Cliff! Hello PJ, Geo, and all!

    As we gather today, let’s remember how much we love each other, and what we mean to one another. Let’s be free with our love and caring, always finding compassion and understanding for each other. Let’s be quick to forgive, realizing how strongly and deeply we’re connected, and how much we need each other. Let’s set others free from our requirements and expectations, no matter how subtle they might be… and allow them to be who they are, and embrace them for it. Let’s be accepting and inclusive, not because it will create a fondness for us in others, but because they are good, and they deserve it. We all carry the same spark of Life. We all need to learn to see that spark in each other, and understand that it is what connects us. We’re not bound together by choice, or by blood… we are connected by design. We are one!

    Cliff,
    I hope you know how thankful I am for you. You have a sincerity that comes through — even on the internet, which is no small feat.

    Thanks for being you and for sharing yourself with us.

    Many Blessings,
    Kevin
