Happy Thanksgiving Friends

November 22, 2007 · Filed Under Holidays, Videos 


I wanted to take this time and thank each and every one of you for your amazing support and your friendship.

This blog has become a part of my Internet family and I appreciate you for giving me that gift.

This Thanksgiving day we have a whole lot to be thankful for. We have family and friends around us and in the end that is all that really matters. Add faith in GOD and LOVE for human-kind to the mix and you have a reason to smile and be thankful not just this day but every day. It is not how fancy of a car you drive or how full your bank account is. Material things die the second you leave this earth and they cannot be taken with you.. The memories and the legacy you leave behind is what will live on forever and ever with those you leave behind..

The important things in life are those that you cannot purchase with dollars or that be replaced by working more hours. Love, Appreciation and Generosity are just a tip of the iceberg of what really makes a human life worth living..

As you sit down with loved ones this Holiday Season, think about what makes every person around you special. To many times we focus on the little mundane things, we disagree with, that our loved ones or people in general do. We tend to forget that we ourselves are not perfect and are probably more irritating than our entire family and friends put together. I for one need to sit back sometimes and focus on the beautiful and unique spirit that every person has… every time I do that it helps me appreciate and be thankful for that person and it helps me forget about the silly little thing that annoyed me in the first place.. EVERYONE is a GIFT that God has given us, and we need not abuse that gift. Every person you encounter in life leaves a footprint within you in one way or another, and we need to return the gift .. with interest :)

Life is too short to be annoyed. Love one another and give thanks that you were given another day to LOVE someone who needs you to be their FRIEND!

Michael W. Smith says it best with his amazing song “Friends”

Happy Thanksgiving Friend and Blessings from my Family to Yours..

    Jerry, That is one of my all time favorite songs. I routinely play that song as a reminder of all the blessings that God has given me in my life. My friends, whether long term or short, are given for a reason and part of God’s plan! Thanks for the wonderful reminder. Mary
