“Thou that hast given so much to me,

Give one thing more–a grateful heart:

Not thankful when it pleaseth me,

As if thy blessings had spare days,

But such a heart whose Pulse may be

Thy Praise.”

~~George Herbert
1593-1633

    I think I enjoy Thanksgiving more than Christmas because the media hasn’t hi-jacked it…yet. I’ve been really loving the poems and reflections on thankfulness that I’ve been reading on your blog and the blogs of others. Thank you :-)
