What does Thanksgiving mean to you?
Some people as you see and hear on various shows say it is just a day to gorge out on whatever you see, but
what does it really mean?
As we all learned in school and hopefully at home it is a day
of being thankful for we have.
T is for, of course Thanksgiving, and being thankful for whatever.
H is for hearth and home.
A is for allegiance to all family and whomever can't be home.
N is for hopefully just being nice to everyone and putting things and ideas behind even for a day even if it is hard to do.
K is for the kindness that one can share with others.
S is for the safety and security that one may feel on such a day.
G is for the idea of being grateful for what one has each day.
I is for the individual person in each family-related or not.
V is for all the variety that seems to occur in and out of the kitchen.
I is for the identities of those missing, but will see one day.
N is for not giving in to various issues and having peace.
G is for granting us all that we need.

A Dart at Dusk
Seconds ago, the sullen sun set on the two of us… my exuberant furry companion and me. A fresh breeze embraces us, delivering welcome relief from the day’s oppressive heat. His typical stumbling and staggering along — apace with a sloth — has turned into trip-trapping, high-stepping, almost skipping along.
