Thanksgiving Thoughts From Carlisle, PA.

By
Real Estate Agent with Keller Williams of Central PA RS334568

This morning while driving into the office, my thoughts drifted and the road became my checklist as I started sorting through my agenda-for-the-day in my mind.  
I was pumped and ready to face the 'To-Do' list with stamina when I was jolted by a row of vibrant red bushes in front of a home I was passing.  
I turned my gaze to the startling beauty surrounding me and realized that my drive had been so consumed with my thoughts of things I needed to accomplish when I arrived AT the office that I completely forgot to be present and enjoy the moments on my way TO the office.

I wonder how often I miss the 'Now'...

As I pause for a moment to write this blog, I am reminded that -

during this season of Thanksgiving, and always, I have the choice to grasp the golden fibers of gratitude and drape them generously wherever the journey might lead...

I love this time of year because our minds are more focused on the blessings around us. Too bad we don't keep it top of mind all year long.

Good morning Maria,
Missing the now:  How often are we thinking ahead or rehasing the past?  I've discovered as a hobbyist photographer, I am often so busy trying to capture the beauty or forget to stop and enjoy the now of it.  Sometimes, I just have to put the camera down and soak it in.   Thanks for reminding us to not miss the beauty of the now!
