I Don't Have Everything, But......

I Have Much More Than Many Others.

I have a loving partner, mother and family.

I have friends, be they near or far, who care.

I will share food with friends today that many could only dream of having.

I  will laugh with others cry.

I'll drink good wine while others thirst.

I'll talk while others sit in silence with no one to talk to.

I'll remember the past, as will others but our memories will be different.

I'll remember my Father and how he carved the turkey.

I'll remember Nero and how he waited by the stove for his dinner.

I'll remember friends or family no longer a part of this world, but still sharing with me.

But mostly, I'll remember, I don't have everything, but I have plenty.

Thanksgiving

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO OUR  FRIENDS IN THE RAIN!

YOU HAVE GIVEN MORE THAN YOU KNOW!
