I wonder how many of us really stop and take the time to think about the magic of life. I am finally at the point of looking back and seeing all of the good things that came out of very difficult situations. There was a man in my life many years ago, Dr. Jay Barrish, who taught me about taking responsibility and accountability in all relationships. Then, my late, great husband showed me how very easy it is to make a difference in someone's day. My list of things to be thankful for is growing longer every year! I am moving forward with the next exciting stage of this life!
Karen - happy Thanksgiving to you too!! Hope you had a great weekend.

Part of the process is also knowing yourself and being you. So often we try to change or be the someone else. A thankfulness for who we are is all part of the plan while we are here on the earth. Sounds like you are entering a great stage of life.
