happy thanksgiving!!!

dear friends and family,
i am sitting here in our living room on metcalfe street, enya is singing, my older sister is sitting beside me writing on the computer, we just finished a pumpkin soup for our thanksgiving dinner tomorrow and i am feeling cozy and comfortable tired.i have worked today a very slow and easy shift. nevertheless i am tired from all the standing, running and walking. tonight there is life music but i am not sure if i will go. we'll have to finish the soup tomorrow morning before we get picked up by a friend of mine.
it is thanksgiving weekend. traditionally thanksgiving is a day of celebration the year's harvest and food that mother earth has provided again. it is a feast of abundance and beauty. of laughter, hard work, people, friendship and gratitude.
i'm grateful too. for this life i am able to live. for the freedom i enjoy. for this healthy body that carries me everyday and that gives my soul a home. for this journey i am on. for lessons every day. for tears and laughter. for people. especially for people. every single one of you has touched my life at different times and stages of my journey. some of you are still walking with me in a physical form and with some of you i am still connected on a spiritual level. but all of you are important to me and all of you have inspired and helped my become the person i am today. many of you will continue being my teachers at different points in my life.
i feel blessed to know every one of you.
life is full of lessons and people who can become wonderful teachers and arms to lean on in times where i need someone to carry me a little while until my feet are strong enough again to walk on their own.
i carry you all in my heart and i am so full of gratitude to the universe that you were sent to become part of my story.
feel loved and hugged from me this thanksgiving.
i sending out the wish that every one of you can be thankful for something these days.
namaste,
jewels

Happy thanksgiving, to you, dear Jewels! Our Gloria is having her knee-replacement surgery on Wednesday (left knee), so keep her in your thoughts. She'll be in the hospital for about 4 days, then she'll be recovering at her son's house for another 10 days or so before she is strong enough to go back home.
much love & thankful hugs S~
