Every one of us has to find the humble stable, the lowly place of the dumb animals and under our own bright star find the Christ and the gift of everlasting faith ~ Mary Strong
In deep December when our world is more often cold and dark, than it is bright and hopeful, we turn toward the light. For some its the lower case light found at the mall, at the parties or in search for a repeat of holidays long ago. When life was gentler and joy was easier to come by. When we look more deeply however the December holidays – Hanukkah, Christmas & Kwanzaa – present us with the true light and our holiday celebrations take on a deeper meaning and warming glow.

With such a topic I could write for days but I figured I will take bits and pieces of the conversation on “mastering”. It is important in all things to have your premise and this in mine “You are responsible for your actions” – I know it is so easy to blame others, quite frankly it feels good because then we wouldn’t have to do any work. However, that’s my story and I am sticking to it. I’m not responsible for your actions neither are you mine.

Oh boy, did I have a day yesterday. My favorite friend “Self – Talk” was close by the whole way through. There are moments when we are asked to step up and out a little higher and that was the case for me yesterday. With each step I am learning so much more about myself and I am allowing all of me to be okay ( after all this is how I have transformed my life thus far). What I am getting in each moment is that transformation never ends – it is really a knowing that “we are always in a state of becoming” – BOOM

There are those days when your heart sings out with a feeling of elation. It cannot be translated in words, sometimes you want to sing. Like for me I always remembering singing this song in prep school – “my cup is full and running over.” That would best describe the feeling tone.

I have a friend from High School that experiences panic attack to the point of going to the emergency room from time to time. Her panic attacks are induced by fear, what others thing about her etc… really she lives a life where she isn’t stepping on anyone’s toes. At the time when these episodes came about I wasn’t aware of the severity or nature of these episodes. I didn’t grasp the feeling tone or what was talking place with her, all that was beyond my understanding. Now, anything that happened in the group or individually she would be the first to say “I am sorry”…it was her nature, she explained to us on numerous occasions that she was raised to say I am sorry in the home.

Healthy, Inspiring & Purposeful people know that appreciation is the highest form of prayer, for it acknowledges the presence of good wherever you shine the light of your thankful thoughts. As we continue the preparation for feasts and festivities, let us pause to consider the invitation for transformation that the Thanksgiving Holiday offers us.
You may be wondering why I would call this article a Thankful Thanksgiving.Aren’t all Thanksgivings thankful? Unfortunately, no. Since I had experienced more than my share of Thanksgivings, I recognize that being thankful is something that we have to work at, even on Thanksgiving.

The moment one gives close attention to anything even a blade of grass, it becomes a mysterious, awesome, indescribably magnificent world in itself – Henry Miller
This week I invite you to slow down and be grateful. This month when thanksgiving is a way of life, find the joy within and shout out in gratitude for indeed, God is here, right here, right now, inside each breath, loving YOU. Allow yourself to feel it. There is a blessing within the process if we allow ourselves to see it. It gives us time to pay attention to the blade of grass or tree branches against the sky and thereby move within and find the joys of Spirit.
