Thanksgiving turkeys are so good and yummy* *Who wouldn't get excited as they tear the body down and it fills your tummy* *We don't have to get swept off by the food and goodies* *We need to truly count our blessings and be thankful* *Don't moan that day...you've had all year to do that* *Focus on what's working rather than the things that aren't...yet* *A favourable disposition to Thanksgiving enlarges the heart* *It's a fuel to your engine to keep going while trying your best on this earth* Happy Thanksgiving, everyone...
