Thanksgiving

Posted on November 21, 2007 by Jason

Thanksgiving is a time of gratitude for family and further for
extending the circle of our loving beyond the borders of mere flesh and
blood.

Let’s try to be mindful, gratefully noticing the good in our lives with
gratitude. But let’s not stop at that. Why not take it to the next step,
to a deeper level by practicing gratitude-mindfulness in action. Share
in some way. Think about what you have with deep appreciation and rather
than just giving in to greed, wanting more of this or that, Just give.
With so much need in the world all around, in each of us, and in all of
us, just give. There is justness and righteousness in it.
