Thanksgiving Toast

Just a few minutes before midnight and the official end of another Thanksgiving. One last toast to give thanks for blessings received and there have been many. The gift of family, friends and loved ones, the gift of life. Little things such as a pillow and a bed to sleep on, a roof over my head, a warm jacket, hugs, and kisses, laughter, tears, a new friendship, babies breath, freedom, serenity, music, puppy dogs, and a full moonlit night. About the only thing missing today was snow and a crackling fireplace. Nonetheless, today was a day of "thanks" and "giving". A giving that comes from the heart, irregardless of $$ and conditions. For it is in giving that we are taught we are blessed.
