Praying for the poorest of Americans.
On our shared Thanksgiving holiday today, they might not be the ones you immediately think of in these tight times:
An aspect of Thanksgiving I’ve always had trouble with is the part about giving thanks. I’m not against gratitude, but things to be grateful for just don’t naturally spring to mind.
How truly sad.
It's not the bank balance afterall, or the worldly success... It's the inner thankfulness. Knowing you are where you are, because of those who strived to help.
"We stand on the shoulders of others, so that one day, we might reach the stars..."
Thanks to my parents, brothers and sisters, friends and family friends. We live in a blessed country, even when we overestimate our liberating tendencies. Some gifts we ourselves can give, and some: we just have to offer strong steady shoulders upon which others may stand and strive...
"So thanks for giving me your love"
Hope:
Worked hard, got us off to school every day...Happy Thanksgiving 2010!
Kept her eyes on the stars when the skies were gray.
Gave us pride to survive, really showed us the way...
Now I really understood what she was tryin' to say:
She said, "Son there'll be times when the tides are high
And the boat may be rocky, you can cry,
Just never give up.
You can never give up."
In this life, you could lead if you only believe...
And in order to achieve what you need:
You can never give up...
You can never give up.
