Grateful

The Thanksgiving holiday is upon us.  People are rushing, and tempers are short.  Traffic is worse than usual, and I've lost count of how many accidents and near accidents I've seen this week.  Last night I thought a dispute at the rotary between two drivers would turn into a brawl.  

It's time to hit the pause button and reflect.  The world is a crazy place, and it seems even more so these days.  There are challenges around every corner, and peace is even further from our grasp.

In spite of all the evil in the world, it's important to remember the 
good . . . family, friends, health, community.

While I bake and cook, I'll be focusing on the good.  Grateful . . . today and every day.
