So, how was your Thanksgiving? We
had a full house this year. My folks were here from Saint John, our daughter
and her family we up from Shelburne, and
we had some time with our son and his girlfriend in the Valley on
Saturday. We did the traditional feast
on Monday and will eat leftovers for a good part of the week. Thanksgiving was good, and we had a riot with
the grandkids. But it was a busy
weekend, with a trip to the Valley on Saturday, three services on Sunday and
the feast on Monday. I wonder how much time I really had for giving
thanks. And I have much to be thankful
for, especially as I look around at the rest of the world, and I don’t just
mean material blessings. I love my wife
and I love my life and there’s a lot to be said in that statement. Often though I take those things for granted, or worse, take them as my
due.
I’m not going to make promises about how next Thanksgiving weekend will
be less rushed because it won’t be. But I am going to try really hard through the
year to say “thank you” more to my family, my friends and my God. Have a great week and remember: To see what
is really possible, you will have to attempt the impossible.
