Being Thankful is the Key to Happiness
Our family got together for Thanksgiving on Friday this year. We had a wonderful afternoon. The big kids were feeding the birds in the yard and playing board games at the dinning table. Us adults were chatting about football and plans for our upcoming Yuletide get together. The food was fantastic, and everyone ate their fill. Our littlest (8 months) even missed nap without skipping a beat which meant I was able to relax even more than usual. The day felt filled with love. We never stopped to pray aloud or verbally give thanks, but you could feel the joy in the room and see the smiles. My world is pretty perfect. And then I got home and opened the news. While my world today felt pretty perfect, the rest of the world is still very much not. Top of the page on Fox was this article . It's not real news. It's about a doctor (or at least someone claiming to be a doctor) on twitter giving reasons for why we shouldn't celebrate the holidays this year (or perhaps anymore at all?)
