Thanksgiving State of Mind

Happy Thanksgiving!

This day is set aside to bask in all that we're thankful for, and many of us are thankful for similar things, even if those things may look different for each of us.

We're thankful for the simple things, like families and friends, the people always in our hearts no matter where they are around the globe or the universe.

We're thankful for a multitude of intangibles, things that soothe our souls, and the beauty in those lies in their differences for each of us.  Some of mine are writing and books and running and laughter and the thought of listening to waves crash on a beach.

As the holiday season kicks into high gear, I hope I can carry this feeling of gratitude with me, like a warm blanket to burrow under when obligations seem endless.

Enjoy something sweet today.
xoxo

    And to you, too!  I don't think I commented, but I loved the London photos.  Tea with champagne?  Yes please!

    I am fairly sure more of it ended up on him (and my white pants!) than it did in his mouth.  Oh well :)

    Hey sweets, I texted you on Thanksgiving but I wanted to write here...that I am SO THANKFUL for you, for all the love, support, giggles, tough love and internet hugs you have given me this year. You are one of the MOST WONDERFUL surprises that 2011 gave me and I'll be thankful for that. xo
