thankful

It's so easy to get caught up in the little things in life, letting stress build up over meaningless things that we can't control and take over our minds and actions. It's far too easy to think and act out of greed, selfishness, fear, or anxiety. It's too easy to get caught up in ourselves and take many precious, precious things for granted. Today I am changing that. I have been blessed beyond measure and I am thankful for today and every day that God has chosen to give me. I am here to love, to give thanks, to spread joy, to help and be a blessing to others.
“Our job is to love others without stopping to inquire whether or not they are worthy. That is not our business and, in fact, it is nobody’s business. What we are asked to do is to love, and this love itself will render both ourselves and our neighbors worthy.”
― Thomas Merton
I'm taking the day and rest of this week off from the internet and totally unplugging to spend time with my family. I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving and blessed holidays and praying for the continued spirit of Thanksgiving amongst everyone throughout the year.
