Being thankful...

It's the holiday season and it usually signals a time of stress (for everyone) and depression (for some of us) and platitudes about how we should be grateful. But what exactly does that mean?

Of course we are automatically grateful that we don't have to suffer deprivation in the same way as, say, any other country going through warring, starvation, and any other plague(s) happening around the world. But how exactly do we show our gratitude for that exemption?

Being thankful needs to take action every day. Not just superficial condescending insincere lip service. It's about being there in the moment when someone needs a kind word, a thoughtful gesture, a polite respectfulness and giving of our selves; these are thankfulness in action.

Everyone talks too much, so much, about love and inclusiveness. ACTIONS speak louder than words. I look at my actions everyday and work diligently to make them worthy of love, inclusiveness, and serving others. It's the little things that count. Ahh, platitudes. But with ACTION behind them...

Here's to your health and happiness.

Cheers,
Mimi

  1. You then put your guess within the betting circle in entrance of your area. Only chips put within the betting circle rely as your guess. In handheld games, the cards are dealt face down and gamers are allowed to choose up their cards. In a shoe sport, the cards are dealt face up to the gamers, who are not allowed to touch them. A pair of 4s should not be cut up either, bet365 as a total of 8 is an effective number to attract to. Generally, 2s, 3s, or 7s could be cut up unless the dealer has an 8, 9, ten-card, or ace.
