It’s a life task to be grateful for all that I have, and all that I do not have – sometimes the not having is the greater blessing.  Gratitude IS an attitude.  It requires constant awareness, an acute sense of perspective, and humility.

Today I am grateful for many things, great and small, but especially for my family.  Many of us are together today in the visual feast that is Sedona, and it is a gift to be here.  I am missing my beautiful first-born daughter and her fiance who are a half-world away, and I am grateful for skype and viber and all of the amazing devices that bring them closer to us.

Happy Thanksgiving, my friends.
