Reflections on Gratitude
Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours this Holiday. I hope you have much to be thankful for. May your God bless you today.
Some things I am grateful for:
1. Writing
2. Music
3. The Great Spirit
4. Love
5. Family, both actual and of the heartand Lastly…
6. For the giant meal that I will eat at 2 PM.
And now a TAG to keep you occupied as you try to escape from those crazier of your relations….
Tell me why you write…
Why do I write?
I write to be heard.
I write to make a difference.
I write to be relevant.
I write to understand how I feel.
I write to work out my salvation with fear and trembling.
I write to exorcise demons, both internal and external.
I write to make sense of the world around me.
I write to be who and what I am.
I write to embrace my past, present, and future.
I write to connect with I AM.
I write to set free that creativity inside of me,
So that my words can grow, reach outside of their maker,
And touch the world.

A good list–and wonderful reasons to write and keep writing. I hope your Thanksgiving is a happy and warm one.
I try to be thankful everyday, otherwise I feel unappreciative.
Want to hear something funny? I’ve been a xangan for nearly 510 days and this is the first time I’ve been tagged. What is the appropriate response? Must I answer at your place or mine?
I write to have someone to interact with.
A fantastic list, sweet one. I hope you and your family had a great day of giving thanks. I’ll have my tag up here in a few.
I am thankful for this moment….. I write because I must, if I did not….I would not be me.
All great reasons.
My most simple reason: I write because I couldn’t imagine NOT writing.
Consider it done and posted. It doesn’t cut very deep, but deep enough for the general public.
I plan on doing this one
