Thanksgiving

11/23/2017

Turkey Day
I was able to spend the day with my Dad on Thanksgiving Day. As I have said before, he's getting up there in years. This makes two years in a row I was able to spend Thanksgiving with Dad and Peggy. 

These like times get more precious as age has not only taken a foothold but has begun to effect noticeable changes.  I suppose you can only hold the whole thing together so long.

This Thanksgiving I feel grateful I've been able to spend more time around Dad.  I've actually spent more time around him in the last 6 months or so than I have since I was 19 years old.  

As we get on with our own lives and get absorbed with work and play and other necessities. 

I keep thinking about Harry Chapin's "Cat's in the Cradle".  

With my own very wonderful children I try to be available but not meddling.  If they need me I will be there but I don't want to interfere.  They both have fun and interesting lives. 

I am grateful for the relationships in my life.  I have been fortunate to have some very good friends and a wonderful family. I am also very grateful for the people in my life who teach me self-control, patience and compassion. 

I hope you had a happy Thanksgiving. I did.
