Tomorrow is Thanksgiving Day here in America and I certainly have a lot to be thankful for; if we open our eyes; we’ll see that we all do. The Pastor said in Church on Sunday; that in a Christian’s life, everyday is Thanksgiving and that is true but I haven’t been myself lately. Lately I have been in a dimly lit place; it’s not completely dark; but I do feel my joy fading. At this time of thanksgiving; I am somewhat in this sort of selfish place; where all I can think about is who I should be; what I should be doing ; what I wish I had; why things aren’t the way I want them to be and on and on and on. That is not something I am proud of and that is not who I want to be. My brain feels so clogged up with gunk; I need to get in there and delete unused; unwanted and unnecessary files before its too late. Nevertheless; I am going to do some writing-therapy and write about all the things I am grateful for and maybe get in tune with what’s real and let go of what’s damaging me.

Everyday should be a day of thanks giving.
Dear Lord thank you for all the ways you bless and enrich my life. Please forgive me of all my sins. Bless and protect my family and friends. In Jesus Name: Amen.
