Gratitude is the inward feeling of kindness received. Thankfulness is the natural impulse to express that feeling. Thanksgiving is the following of that impulse. ~ Henry Van Dyke
No matter the circumstances, there is always much for which to be thankful:
For the new dawn breaking in the eastern skies;
For the trees standing in silhouette, its stark beauty of a tree readied for the winter as it follows nature’s rhythm’s in preparation for new life;
For the earth in readiness for winter;
For my body in health, with the ability to stand and walk, to speak and sing, to think and write, to see and hear, to create, to take me where I need to go, to provide not only me, but for my family, my friends;
For those that love me and those that do not, I am thankful for the connections, the support, the lessons that I learn;
For all that I need and for much that I want.
I am thankful.
