The last few years have been increasingly stressful for me. In addition to extensive physical and emotional demands, I’ve had the responsibility of making several difficult and heartbreaking decisions. It’s taken quite a toll on my health; however, I do feel that I’m gaining strength and envision an easier tomorrow on the horizon.
No doubt, many of you have your struggles as well. Perhaps this has not been your best year either. And yet I’m sure you, as I, have much to be thankful for. It often seems that when we feel loss, we are more aware of what else we do have. I never lose sight of the fact that my list of blessings is quite extensive.
Together, let’s take a moment to give thanks and wish one another peace and love. Happy Thanksgiving.
