GIVING THANKS



This is one-half of my family as they are about to take off to go camping at the beach for Thanksgiving.

I've taken this quote from Seth Godin's blog post of Tuesday, November 22. It says perfectly what I believe in my heart.


ALL WE HAVE IS EACH OTHER
And that's enough. It has to be
It's all we've ever had.
The challenge is in realizing this and working with it,
even when we're secretly hoping for something 
more, some external force.
You and me, kid, you and me and a few billion other 
folks.
We can treat each other as if it matters, because it 
does.

After the past election and the events of the past
two week, I am so grateful for our amazing nation. 
I hope that we can draw strength from one another 
to be grateful and to commit to making sure that the
threats of the campaign do not become reality. 

Blessings,
Mary & Jones & Cole

PS Don't know why the blog insists on formatting this way and I can't fix it......Grrrrrrrrrrrr.
