Happy Thanksgiving ! A quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson...

Happy Thanksgiving !

Stephanie and I hope that everyone has a great thanksgiving ! There is a lot to be thankful for. Every day we hear a lot of negative news about the economy, the real estate market, foreclosures, government bailouts...etc and sometimes within all that we may forget that Life is beautiful. Life is precious, life is short. There is so much to be thankful for... especially family and friends.

My father sent an email to me this morning with a quote from Ralph Waldo Emerson:

"For each new morning with its light,

For rest and shelter of the night,

For health and food,

For love and friends,

For everything Thy goodness sends." Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882)

In about one hours, I will pop MR. Tom Turkey in the oven as many other families are doing. My first thought this morning upon waking, was there's going to be a lot of demand for electric and gas in the US over then next few hours.... Happy T Day to you.

Happy Turkey day to both of you Stehanie & Chris! Have a super-fantastic day! KM

You are so right! There is much to be thankful for! Happy Thanksgiving!

Chris and Stephanie, What a perfect quote for today. I wish you both a very Happy and Blessed Thanksgiving.

Happy Thankgsiving guys! I hope your day is awesome - take pics of your Friday shopping - we'll post 'em!

Christopher and Stephanie:

Happy Thanksgiving and good health and fortune. Family and friends are what it's all about and enjoy, enjoy, enjoy.

a little transcendentalism to start the Thanksgiving day, i love it! i wish someone like Emerson could see what we have to be succumb to in the news these days... doom and gloom. maybe we need to read more prose, rather than watch more news these days. i find that the best thing one can do to counteract the doom and gloom is... smile! thanks for the optimism, we need more.

Mary - enjoy your turkey and enjoy the special day !

Kristin - Have a great one too !!

Cristal - A lot to be thankful for, for sure !! Including Active Rain : )

Carole - Is a great quote - when I got the email from my father this morning I smiled : ) There is sooooooo much to be thankful for.

Steve - Happy Thanksgiving to you as well ! Enjoy a little break !

Mark - Great point - everyone should just smile and enjoy the day and long weekend and let all the doom and gloom just wash away... and read more prose if need be !

Richard - You do the same, Enjoy, Enjoy Enjoy ! Is a beautiful day in Philadelphia !

on a side note (whispers) I did a second showing this morning and finalized writing an offer (dont tell anyone : ) )

Christopher and Stephanie, have a wonderful Thanksgiving, and thank you for the Emerson!

Chris & Stephanie,

Thanks for the post and the well wishes, I trust your day was all that you wanted it to be, including the opportunity to share your thoughts on being thankful for your many blessings.
