Thanksgiving- A Time for Reflection

So, things are not great. Money is tight. Work has become routine and life isn't quite going the way I planned. However, I am financially getting by. I have a job that is pretty secure and there is hope in the future. I believe that my dreams can come true.

I have two marvelous daughters who are finding their way in this crazy world. The economy is improving. I am whittling away on my degree and I am learning exactly who I am. Not bad in my fifth decade on Earth. I am in a better place. Learning even as my bones begin to moan and slow.

Peace is out of reach for the world and my soul tonight. Yet, the tools for me personally are within my reach. It is same for our country's leaders, as well. If we stop the judging of others, learn to take responsibility for our actions and trust that we can make a difference when we care enough- we will change for the good.
Until next time...
