Happy Thanksgiving
This Thanksgiving, my second without Jim, will be difficult and very different for me, again.
There is no turkey on the Weber….no pipe smoke wafting in through the window. No sunrise mimosas on the beach. No delivering baked goods to the base……..these are my memories of Thanksgiving past. Ones I am Grateful for.
Today, new memories will be made. Today I’m Thankful to spend this Thanksgiving with a crew of amazing young people and their families…..meaning lots of little ones!!! I am Grateful.
I will shed my tears, but they will be shed with a Grateful heart……for I am Blessed with a Love that transcends time and space. Yes I mourn what is lost, but I also celebrate.
I am Thankful. I Am Blessed.
“I continue to open my heart to the world, a heart that though still broken, is coming back together.”
Dear Linda, I wish you and yours a lovely Thanksgiving Day. I know it will be a day of sadness for you, as every day is without Jim by your side, but he is poppet you may not see Jim or feel him but Jim is there for you today and everyday. I hope you will find the peace and love on this your Thanksgiving Day. Thinking of you.
Beautiful and healthy post! I’m assuming you’re going to the gathering and not cooking then?
Happy Thanksgiving, Linda. Much to be thankful for. Not the least of which are memories. 😊😊
A blesssed and peaceful Thanksgiving to you, Linda xx
