Tomorrow is Thanksgiving. I have written several posts on gratitude and my heart continues to swell with thanks for family, friends and all those who have lifted me up with love this past year, especially the last eight months since my husband, Jerry, died.
It has amazed me how, by helping others, it comes right back full circle. Being hunting season I knew it was time to pass Jerry's hunting clothes and winter coats on to a better home. A friend who had grown kids took it all, only to outfit many people. This included not only her kids but the homeless.
Yes, I may "see" Jerry around town if I run into those who are getting good use out of warm clothes. It is amazing to be so grateful that someone was able to use and share belongings that I no longer have need for!!!
Just imagine if each of us cleared out stuff and shared it with the less fortunate! Giving is one thing but as we give, we receive such a sense of satisfaction because of how it lifted them up! There is so much each of us could give: clothes, money, food, time/attention, the list is endless. Our imagination is our oyster!
So, a blessed Thanksgiving to each of you and your family. May you be blessed and may you continue to bless others with the gift you become to each and every life you meet!
