Happy Thanksgiving

Today is just a quickie.. those are good once in a while, right?

Just wanted to wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving. Pull up a chair and have a slice of pie.

A lot of cynical people out there think that Thanksgiving represents gluttony and football. Well yeah, duh. That's part of it for sure, but it's much more than that. It's a day we set aside to give thanks for everything we have and all that we are as as people and a culture. Traditions for the holiday run deep through all of us and we all have some fond memories of Thanksgivings past. The people and locations may change, the meals might be just a little more healthier than they used to be, but in the end we're all celebrating together, making new memories. It's about family and friends getting together and spending the day appreciating the people near and far that we share our lives with, missing those we have lost and being thankful for everything that we have and that we share.

Sharing. Sharing our lives, our love and our bounty. Individually, we may not have much, but bring it all together and we all have a feast.

So thank you for stopping by and sharing this with me. I'd so let you have the drumstick if you wanted it. Paws off that thigh though, that sucker's mine.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
