Thanksgiving Day 2008

Wow! Just typing the title to this post reminds me of many things to be thankful for. Not "Thanskgiving Day" but the "2008". This year of our lord, two thousand and eight after death in itself is to be thankful. First, to be thankful that our savior died for us two thousand and eight years ago and another for this past year that we have been si blessed for many things. I am thankful this year for all the same things that I was thankful for last year and the year before, but each year it means even more. Another year with my beloved family and loved ones, another year to reflect on the meaning of life and to participate in life. Many persons this past year have suffered hardships, many have not. Even when days are dark there is always something to be thankful for, it may not always be visible or apparent, but still there. I wish for all that this next year that it be full of happiness and many blessings and as Nanny would say, "Thank You Jesus".
