Thanksgiving Day done a new way! Who wants in?

I was just posting my feelings about my mom being gone and now my brother. My family is very splintered and I spend a lot of time looking at that instead of what I do have.

Soooo, this holiday, I am going to pray over my 'special tablespoon' that I am going to take with me to dinner at my sisinlaws. I will not eat mindlessly, barely tasting my food. I am going to take one scoop of everything and savor it and enjoy it and be thankful.

I am going to concentrate on faces, smiles, words, discussions,and look around for ways that I can cheer some one else instead of stuff my face with food to stuff my feelings.

I am going to be thankful for those that are still here, not those that are gone. Those that have no job instead of my broken down car,. . . you get the point. The day may not be easy, but at least it will be my choice to look at my glass as half full.

I am gonna be thankful . I am gonna love mindfully. Eat mindfully, Talk mindfully. And listen mindfully. Bless all of you out there that are happy and to those who are struggling, I pray it will end. Happy Thanksgiving. kc
