Happy Thanksgiving

I hope everyone has had their fill of turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, cranberries, green bean casserole, pumpkin pie, apple pie, etc. I trust you have spent the day with loved ones (friends, family, or pets) and have said your many thanks for the things we say we are thankful for each year. Maybe you've got some parade and football watchin' done as well. Good for you!!!

BUT, let me stop you there...............we say the thanks, we hug the loved ones, we eat the food, but do we REALLY take those moments to cherish each other, what we have, where our choices in life have taken us? Are we on the journey we expected to be on, or have we ended up in new, different, exciting places? It is so easy to get caught up in the cooking, the chatting, the football, the company. I want you each to take at least 10 minutes today before you go to sleep. Take the time ALONE. No significant other along side you watching TV, no radio or TV distracting you, truly alone. Use the porcelain throne room if you need to, most folks don't barge in there on you. Now, when you are alone, reflect on life, the last year, the last 5-10 years, the last week. Truly reflect on YOUR life, not your kids lives or anyone else, just yours. Find the happy moments that take your breath away. Find the sad ones that still make you cry. Find the times when adventure worked in your favor and the adrenaline flowed. NOW........be truly thankful for those moments, those parts of YOUR journey are yours and only yours, no one can take them away from you. Remember, life is the journey through time not the destination. Hop into your TARDIS if you have one, and go for a spin. Happy Thanksgiving!!!!
