Struggles and Thanksgiving

I know thanksgiving is a season to be thankful for the blessings in our lives and the people that we love..
I also know it is a time that can amplify the struggles that we are experiencing ..
There is a myth that things must be perfect in our lives in order to enjoy these special holidays..
I disagree with this notion.. I think we can enjoy the good that is a part of our lives even while bearing the bad and live with this paradox..
Somehow we do this every other day of the year .. Why not try the same mindset this thanksgiving ..
Be thankful and enjoy the blessing while realistically facing the struggles and knowing that this is life, for all of us, no one really lives without this paradox no matter how things may appear in others lives ..
In the event that you are alone or that you are missing someone very special on this day.. All that I said previously, well set aside for you and say that it’s ok for you to mourn and experience the pain of separation.. In such an event please reach out to someone who cares for support..
In that mind, if there is someone that you know who is alone, please take some time and reach out to them, no one should go uncared for on thanksgiving …
