Giving Thanks

Gratitude should be given every day, but because we are so busy, it is given homage once a year. What a shame. Thankfulness should be given for the basic necessities of life, such as: food, clothing, and shelter -- things that are indispensable. Appreciation should then be offered for the souls and things we like and love. These feelings can be shared with others or can be pondered. Thanksgiving to me is like a pomegranate with so many sweet facets that I have to write them in my journal and savor them. Special thanks that I like to share with others includes: my tan tiger striped cat -- Cilantro, my pet rock, my writing, and my faith in God.
