Hi Oi, Hola, Salut, and Здравствуй, everyone -
Naturally, this week’s homework topic is related to Thanksgiving. I don’t really feel like posting due to my health issues, but I definitely have many things to be thankful for.
First, I am appreciative of still being alive. I have seen so much death and disease lately that my own health issues seem even more ominous than they are. In addition, the perpetuation of hate and violence in the world has me wondering when, rather than if, someone will try to kill me, sooner rather than later.
Since I am still amongst the living, I am extremely grateful for this wonderful SG community, especially the SGs, Hopefuls, and members that have chosen to follow my page. Thank you, everyone, for simply being the awesome people that you are and for being willing to spend a little bit of your energy to view my musings and creative ventures, big or small.
I am most grateful that I still have the opportunity to work on the liquidation of my karma each day, that I have a roof over my head, food in the fridge, and employment opportunities that make those things possible. I’m grateful I was able to see my mother again for Thanksgiving; I know there are far fewer ahead than there are behind.
In the end, life is short, and we reap what we sow. I can only hope that I have not sown too many seeds of discord, for I wish no ill upon anyone, for all that they may not reciprocate those feelings. It will be my goal each day going forward to sow the seeds of good will and love to the end of my days, however few they may be and no matter how others may choose to judge me.
I hope each of you has many things to be thankful for right now, whether you celebrate Thanksgiving or not.
Much Love,
💗
