Yes, I know Thanksgiving is all about giving thanks and being with family and I’m all for it. Sometimes I think we get caught in the crunch of everything going on and we place too much stress on ourselves. We have an abundance of abundance, so stop and smell the roses purely for the benefit of your own nose. Sound silly? Probably, but in the rush to get from here to there, to cook this and that, to see him and her, there’s not a lot of time for appreciation. That’s what I’m talking about. And, it starts by taking care of…you. Find a quiet place and have a cup of tea, glass of wine, or whatever and enjoy your own company for a bit. You’ll find yourself so much more thankful when you go back for that second helping of pumpkin pie.
