Read on, and see if you can "spot yourself", as I give thanks on this Thanksgiving Day.
You supported my 'change-of-life', told me to 'follow-my-dreams', and gave me a world filled with real love.
Simply put - you made me proud every single day!
When we talked, I heard your wisdom, and felt a connection to family that made the world seem calmer and brighter.
You told me my mother would be proud of me, and that she's smiling down on me from heaven.
Your favorite song is, "What a Wonderful World", and you were always gracious and giving.
You left me a voicemail days before Christmas, and sang a few bars of that holiday song. Even if I can't recall the exact title, the memory still makes me smile.
Even though I had never been "published", you gave me the opportunity, and the platform, to write 'from-the-heart' (without constraint).
Your friendship continues through all the phases, stages, and changes.....and for that, I am truly grateful and blessed.
Happy Thanksgiving to all......and thanks-for-giving!
