Thanksgiving Challenge
Dear Ursuline,
Turning 40 has been a pivotal time for me; I have been able to look back on my life and clearly see. I am not the person that I have always dreamed of being; I am more. My experiences, rich and diverse, because of the family that I have been blessed with and the friendships I have developed. And, for all of this I give thanks.
Thanksgiving is November 22 and what better time to reflect on the many things we all have to be grateful for? There are endless opportunities to say, “Thank you,” simply for another day to try to get this whole thing right again. Yet, too often we find ourselves, I know that I do, hurrying throughout the day, rushing to get here and there, and never stopping to recognize that there is something more important.
I am thankful for this forum, to blog to the Ursuline community and beyond, the things I value most, the vision I hold for a harmonious world, and all with a voice of compassion for human kind. This has been a chance for me to speak up and be heard. What a fantastic gift I have been given! How would you all like to do the same? Well…now is your chance. In the month of November I bring a new challenge for everyone to blog what they are thankful for. I hope that you will accept this gift from me and use it for good. And, in keeping with our blog tradition I leave you the words of W.T. Purkiser, prolific writer, scholar and preacher, “Not what we say about our blessings, but how we use them, is the true meaning of our thanksgiving;” blog on and inspire and motivate others.
Yours truly,
Kimberley H.
