Time to Give Thanks

It is that time of year again when we take a break to spend time with family and friends. We get so busy with our everyday lives that we sometimes forget about what matters most. Days, weeks or even months can pass by without hearing from the people we care about. The more time that goes by, the more difficult it is to pick up the phone and call or even send a message. Either they are too busy or you are too busy and just tired. We don’t forget the people though. Our memories are full of those great times during the holidays when everyone can relax and forget about work for a while. It’s important to spend this time with the people who matter the most in your life.

The holidays remind us of how much we care about our family and friends and how important they are in our lives. During the year when people are busy, they sometimes forget to call a friend going through a tough time or their parents who might be worried about them. That’s what happens in life. Thanksgiving is a time to appreciate what you have and the blessings in your life. Celebrate that you have people who will be there for you when you need them. That’s comforting year round as you navigate this challenging world.

Take time to relax and let your family know you appreciate and care about them. Be thankful for the blessings in your life. When the world is in disarray, they can be your anchor. Thanksgiving is a time to give yourself a break from the everyday challenges and spend time with the people who matter the most. Goodwill is contagious and can make a difference in the world to make it a better place.
