Give Thanks....

It's that time of year when we slow down from Summer's hectic pace and realize how blessed we are to have what we have, be it a modest, humble dwelling or more....
We start thinking less about us and more about others,,,,
My family and I are greatful for our Military who unquestionably serve and protect our Great Nation and are the first to help protect other countries.
We are greatful for the leadership of our Government,,,we may not always agree with a particular view, but we are fortunate to live in a country that allows us the freedom to Vote, Worship, and express our opinions with out fear of imprisonment or worse....
We are greatful for Organizations that show charity to the poor, homeless, physically & mentally challenged....providing food and shelter for them....
We are greatful for the opportunity to volunteer and help in anyway...not just standing in a food service line and putting food on the plates of less fortunate, but to be behind the scenes, cleaning up trash and washing dishes.
We are greatful for all that we have and to be able to give back to those who have not.
We are greatful to be able to 'Give Thanks'.
