Yes, it’s that time of year again. Time to give thanks. Yes, Thanksgiving in the midst of a pandemic. And as we head into Winter. And wind down on a year we will never forget, 2020. So, it will take some effort and thought, perhaps. But this is the year and the time to step back and find the joy in this holiday and what it signifies to us.
We all need to focus on what we DO have, not what we don’t. I know…hard sometimes. If we’ve lost someone we know or love, this year or in the past, for whatever reason – remember the good stuff. Visualize the fun. Tell stories that make you laugh. I am in the same boat as you and plan on doing just that!
And for sure, this year more than ever – REACH OUT. Reach out to our friends, loved ones, neighbors and connect in a safe way. But connect and check in, express your care, just make contact folks! It will really make a difference.
Trying times require extra effort, thought and focus on positives. We can and will overcome the negatives we face. And it’s up to us but we do not have to do it alone. Reach out.
Be safe. Be giving. Be thankful. And please, enjoy the holiday. You CAN do it. We all need it!
Thank you and blessings to you all this Thanksgiving.
