Happy Thanksgiving
Norman Rockwell titled this Freedom from Want. There are many in want in our nation and across the world. May those of us in plenty be truly grateful and may we work toward a world where no one is in want.
My ambition is to find a book of Norman Rockwell's work...they are so redolent of the 40's and 50's and made me fall in love with all thing's American.
Ah yes. Take nothing for granted. As one who lived in Third World countries twice (once as a foreign exchange student and once for summer), I got to see that not everyone has it as rosy as we do.
Then again, we have 3rd world poverty in this country too, but it seems Americans like to look the other way about that.

A Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family! I am proud to count you among my "plenty". Thanks for sharing of yourself with so many of us.
Happy Thanksgiving, Lime. I hope you're having a great holiday!
Happy Thanksgiving to you my dear friend.
That's the best Thanksgiving sentiment possible. As we all enjoy our "too much," may we think about to transfer some of that to those with too little.
Happy Thanksgiving, Lime.
Hope you had a delicious one!
