On this day in which you give thanks, stop and do so for yourself—not just for all the things external. Inside you lies the greatest treasure you can imagine—the link to All That Is. That which you call your True Self is the soul—the part of you which is eternal and eternally loving.
On this day you will feast and overstuff the body, but feast as well on love and gratitude. Giving thanks for your very existence brings you into resonance with the Divine and your divine nature.
And so, beloved ones, give thanks not just for this holiday, but on every holy-day of your life. How could each day not be holy when the fact that you exist at all proves your very connection with the Source of all Love … with God.
So very thankful for these daily messages!
Seemed appropriate to share this poem on this post:
Thanks To Be
When the last door closes and the taillights go away
You are thankful for the family that came and went that day.
The food and laughs remembered from days long ago
Seem to linger in your mind like a candles warm glow.
Those that we’ve lost are never far away
All it takes is a memory to bring them back this day.
But it’s not the same you say from Thanksgivings past
The chasm that exists between loved ones can be so vast.
Maybe it’s the music or a smell that is known
To bring you to a place that feels like home.
Home is where the heart is, we know this to be true
To cherish the past while creating new memories is really up to you.
