Thank you, dear Melissa. I came down with a horrible flu the next day, but my day of thankfulness was just wonderful. I hope you had the same...minus the flu. Sending you my best today as always,

Well, I guess you knew what
you were talking about when
you said to stop by.

Your brief story read like
something I would have done.

No, this doesn't make me wonderful.
I simply admire such compassion in
your story. the way we all should be.

N'est pas?

Have a six.

Tout à fait. Thank you for stopping by and for the perfectly wonderful six. The day was good and we had a grand feast with 42 around the house and yard dining. My brother-in-law was the chef and host and met more new people who are now wanting my to hear of my new writing endeavors. Everyone was so happy for me and rooting me on. I was brought to tears when a relative sought me out for a selfie claiming they never knew an author personally. A sweet day of thankfulness and new friends were made. I appreciate you crossing the bridge. It means so much to me. :)
Sending you my best as always,

Hi Sally and Jackson,
What a lovely gesture, to share with us all. We do not celebrate thanks giving over here but it always sounds like a wonderful time. Small snippets of kindness can stay with some people for ever, and I think your young lady friend will be for ever grateful to you for offering her love and kindness when she needed it.
A really lovely read.

Thank our, dear Bremda. I call Thanksgiving the forgotten holiday. My mother's was very hospitable and made every holiday special and remembered those less fortunate. I learned these things from her and her gift of hospitality.

This is a very good positive message. I hope the reader feels invited and maybe even challenged to reflect on how appreciative they are how they express it. It reminds me of the poignant movie Pay It Forward. It is not easy to do this. This account is a tribute to those who are self-giving and appreciative.

My home has always been open to those most unfortunate over the years.I have never turned anyone away my kids brought home. I always said when you can pay it forward.
