We Give Thanks

Today is Thanksgiving!!!

And I guess this is the day we remember to give thanks. I mean us who could care less about that whole "pilgrim story" =/ (well the story they'd like us to believe anyway).

Even though I whisper my "thank you's" everyday, I'm glad for this day when we can come together in unison with our hearts and belly's and say "Thank you" :-)

There is so much for me to be thankful for I could write a book lol. Most of all I'm thankful to BE. Thankful to LOVE. Thankful to SEE. Thankful to FEEL.

I'm blessed to have a family that I love with every ounce of me through all the storms, and I love'em right back. I'm blessed to have friends that are loyal and posers that live to betray me. I'm thankful for the adversities that lead to the sweet sweet triumphs. I'm thankful for the vision that looks in the mirror fearlessly (I see all my beauty and all my ugly and I'm not afraid). I'm thankful for this gift/ this curse; EMPATHY that allows me to feel and connect on a real raw level. I'm so thankful for this light I have within and the spirit that surrounds me, protecting me. I feel it so LOUD!! 

I'm so thankful for this happy I posses even in my solitude. (don't doubt it's real lol). I'm thankful for what lies ahead (so anxious for that). I'm thankful for this feisty fighter I have inside me that is so passion driven.........

Ok so now I'm in tears so I'll stop here but I am oh so very very thankful for so many things. Even the little things. :'-) 

Yall all have a safe and festive Thanksgiving!!! I'm thankful for you too.

A moment of silence for the Native Americans who were abused in the name of this day. And for those today that may not have a family or food. I ask that nourishment is provided in some way.

Amen. Now eat up
