Thanksgiving

 Thanksgiving

A few years ago I wrote a blog called "Thanksgiving - It's Not About The Turkey." I read it again and it still rings home with me and I hope it rings home with you:

Thanksgiving - It's Not About The Turkey

 

 

Thanks for the times you have given me

 

Thanks for my health even though I ache all over

 

Thanks for the friends who wish me well and want me to be happy

 

Thanks for letting me turn 70 with my brain intact even though I have CRS (Can't Remember Shit)

 

Thanks for the next 24 years I plan to enjoy with all my heart

 

Thanks for my beautiful (both inside and outside) wife who always makes me feel mighty, mighty real

 

Thanks for a dad who taught me about the importance of hard work

 

Thanks for a dad who gave me a bright brain even though he also gave me bad bumpers (bad back, bad spine and bad knees) 

 

Thanks for a mom who loved and hugged me all the time.

 

Thanks for a mom who taught me to be tolerant to every race, religion and sexual orientation

 

Thanks for the money I've made that has enabled me to have choices in our American way of life

 

Thanks for Bob who got me to believe I was in control of my happiness and could choose happiness over negativism

 

Thanks for me because since 40 years old I've been making all the right choices

 

Thanks for me because I love what I've become

 

Thanks for the people around the world who read my blogs and my books because it makes me feel valued

 

Thanks for my mentored clients who have enhanced their happiness because of something I gave to them

 

Thanks to all the people who give positive energy out to the Universe so they and the rest of us could have a better life

 

Thanks to America for giving me and most others a chance to create a better life

 

Thanks to all the people around the world who believe love, tolerance and freedom will win out over totalitarianism and terrorism

 

 

To all of you on this wonderful holiday;

 

Focus on the things to be thankful for and not the turkey
