Let Us Give Thanks...

[shilala]

On this holiday, I'd like to thank the Good Lord for His Love.
After years of painful slowness and stubborn stupidity, I ultimately realized enough of what His Love is about so that I can share it in kind, as best I can. That blessed ability has allowed me to be prepared to receive His Grace when He brought Lisa into my life, a love on this earth like I'd never known could have existed.
I thank Him for my children, all of whom have brought to my life patience, meaning, and a never-ending source of wonderment. They are a story that continues to write itself each day, something that I can watch unfold, a production in which I'm honored to take part. I thank Him that I now have something good and decent that I can share with them.
I thank Him for my family and friends and all His children that I may be challenged each day to express the Love that He has given me to share, despite my judgement and intolerance.
I thank Him for this life, this opportunity, and the unending blessings He bestows on me every day's moment. May I be man enough to accept His gifts with humility, and to use His possessions to continually lift His Holy name.

Please share your thanks here, that we may all be inspired today to love to our fullest capacity, and to shine with the joy that is that happiness.

Happy Thanksgiving to you all, may the Good Lord guide you and keep you on this most beautiful of days. Be certain to do all that is in your power to make it the very best day of your life. I'll be doing the same.
