Thanksgiving

Sunflower by Renato Flief (see movimento-o link...)

Redefining what is "necessary," from things to money
to restless thoughts that needlessly engorge my mind,
this Thanksgiving takes on new meaning for me,
and I am grateful that I have, have always had,
and will always have, all that I need, and more.
God bless us all, everyone.

"Tis a gift to be simple, 'tis a gift to be free,
Tis a gift to come down where we ought to be,
And when we find ourselves in the place just right,
It will be in the valley of love and delight."
"Simple Gifts" traditional hymn by Elder Joseph Brackett, 1848
