"He/she who expects a lot often appreciates NOTHING, he/she who expects little or nothing oft appreciates everything." - William Anthony, 2018.

I can 'celebrate' thanksgiving while acknowledging genocide, slavery, and msitreatment. I am not celebrating thise things. I am quite aware of the re-writing of history by most people in their ignorance.

Not sure that thanks giving is a thing one should celebrate. It is somehow very insensitive to the Native Americans. Maybe it should be changed to something els.

I ended up having company, talking and drinking a beer, and I did not eat at all. She was the only one to eat and we had no turkey.

stay safe everyone

Happy Thanksgiving bud

Despite covid I am fortunate to have friends and family that took the time to call and visit me via video. I was also lucky enough to swing an invitation to a friend's house who did all the cooking.I was told not to bring anything so the first time in my whole life I did not contribute one thing other than some flowers for the table. I did bake a persimmon pie though and gave it to a neighbor.We were able to eat outside by his garden so all five of us felt perfectly safe from infection. Something tells me we won't be eating outside at Christmas though.

A good perspective, and thank you.

Happy Thanksgiving!
Happiness does not cause gratefulness, but gratefulness does create happiness

Nice to see people giving thanks to others who have helped to make a difference in their lives, real and tangible difference. So many people will be bowing their heads today and thanking a sky daddy that doesn't exist and wouldn't give a flying fuck at a rolling donut if he did.

I got a message from a cousin that is somewhat of an outcast. That was food for my heart.
