Thanksgiving

This year has been one of the best ever. I know I've said that before, but I mean it. I think it's a combination of my feeling good coupled with true seasons that have played out so wonderfully, this year. Every season has lived to its fullest and I cannot remember a year when that happened all the way through, from winter, to spring, to summer, to fall. Let's hope this winter rings true as well.

I am thankful for so many things in this life. Things I cannot express in words and things that make my heart tingle, with just a sheer thought. Many things we take for granted are a few that come to mind: health, vision, mobility, warmth, food. We are a blessed nation, a blessed state, a blessed region, a blessed city, indeed. And we could survive without most things we have.

As we head in to Christmas, and as I come to the reality that yet another year has gone by, and I will be another number older, I want less things and more relationships. I want more relationships with my family, with my friends, and with people who don't know Jesus. I want more memories and less toys, more talks and less gifts. More love and less bickering. All these, I dream.
