Thanks and Giving

-by Matt Leedham

It struck me recently that Thanksgiving is a combination of two words and two meanings. Of course it’s common to say that it is a time to give thanks, but I think that is incomplete. To have gratitude for all that is around you and all that you are is beautiful. But there is also beauty in giving. There is deep joy in gratitude and giving, and I wish that gift of joy for all of you.

Enjoy this time with loved ones. Give generously, and be open to receiving with all of your heart.

“If the only prayer you ever say in your entire life is ‘thank you,’ it will be enough.” -Johannes Eckhart
