It is Thanksgiving and I wondered, as I am sure do millions of others today, what to give thanks for.
I was standing in my kitchen when I was having these heavy thoughts, helped no doubt by a bottle ( ! ) of red wine given to me by Kathy and James.
What to be thankful for ?
And I looked at my dining table where I had placed a bouquet of bougainvillea that I had picked this morning and thought:
This is what I am thankful for.
That I am still able to pick flowers
that I live in a place where on the 25th of November I can pick them
and that I still appreciate the beauty and uniqueness of these simple things
for that I am thankful
and to be able to share this with my friends and family who read my blog.
Happy Thanksgiving.
