Thanksgiving-ness

Thursday is the good ol' American holiday of Thanksgiving, a day when we look all around us and be very thankful for the things we have, as well as the things we don't have.

Confused?

Ok, let me explain.

I am thankful I do not have AIDS or cancer. I am thankful I am not alone -I have a wonderful, caring man to look after me and share my life with me, despite my sometimes-instanity of writing and reading and just being this really weird person I happen to be. I am thankful I do not have to live out-of-doors. I am thankful I do not have to squander and scrouge for food, etc.

See, there are many things to be thankful for - those things we have, and those we do not have.

Happy Thanksgiving all. Be safe.
