Thanksgiving letters

I am thankful for four things:

I’m thankful for enough. Enough is as good as a feast.

I give thanks daily for the love of others in my life; one who is loved by others is rich in spirit and hope.

I give thanks for hope, for it makes each day new and doable and inviting.

Finally, I give thanks for the gift of learning. Each opportunity to learn and then to apply that learning is a blessing, a chance to leave myself and my world better than I found them, and thus to help others have enough, to share hope, and to honor those that have loved me.
