Each Thanksgiving, I pause to reflect on how very grateful I am for the blessings all around us. With each passing year, I realize how important it is to express gratitude. The pandemic continues to affect us. This was year three of the pandemic altering our holiday plans. With one of my kids sick with COVID, and others exposed (including me), our gathering turned out much differently than planned. To be frank, it sucks.
But we are grateful nonetheless. So many blessings all around us, even if at times you have to look harder to find them.
Although Thanksgiving again may have been a different holiday than we’re used to, we found ways to connect with our loved ones. By this time next year, hopefully we will be back to some semblance of “normal,” or at least a new normal, and make up for the losses we continue to feel during these challenging times. Hopefully, things will eventually suck less.
From the bottom of my heart, and from my family to yours, I extend my gratitude for being part of my community, here and at Become the Fire and at 30Seconds. You inspire me every day, and for that I am grateful. Gratitude is the gift, and you always remind me of that. I wish you a peaceful and blessed holiday season!
