Angel/TGIF

Scene - Present Day
Friday,

Hey everybody.
Happy Friday to you. Taking a moment to be still and let life happen, and being ever so grateful for all that you have and do not have. To relish in the now is a good place to be. Giving thanks is always in order. The happenstance part of where we get to next is always intriguing because it's the fuzzy part. Why does the curious mind always push the envelope, always demanding to know more? I think it's good to press the issue. Being afraid to let life happens, never gets you anywhere.

Death happens every day, and a new angel earns their wings and take flight. Having a angel on your shoulder can be a comfort to some, while others fear them. As Thanksgiving approaches we have to let these thoughts resonate within us. Being thankful isn't always easy. Do you ever sit and ask God what is his design for your life? Are you being still enough to hear his answer? More and more on my path, I'm asking those questions for myself and not so much for others these days.

Thanksgiving is a time to fellowship, to toss all your issues and angst aside, if only for a few hours, it's a chance to see your family and friends, and partake in the feast that we've all come to know and appreciate. When we bless the food that we'll devour, for that brief moment we're unified again, in accordance to the good book. Little things like giving thanks for being in the land of the living. To see another gathering of reunion. Some were not so lucky or maybe they were, to not see another holiday, just depends on how you view it. I more so appreciate the day for the meaning, than the food, most probably appreciate it equally.

Last year around this time I talked about "Harvest Time" which spoke to the need to make time for people and things, that we tend to take for granted. A year has passed when you reflect back, how did you make out this year? Did you make time for the forgotten family members, or the old friends that you may have lost touch with? Was a burden lifted or still just as heavy? Yes this all leads back to the holiday that is vastly approaching. In times such as these no matter what struggles and problems you're presented with, be it big or small, the resolve is always in the resolution, because at some point you have a 'Angel' helping to cushion your landing. Like rocks of Gibraltar bumps and bumps yet STILL WE RISE...and oh yes, we do give thanks. Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!!!

What are you doing with your life?
