A different Thanksgiving message

None of you would know, but this is a very hard time of year for me. I want you to take this message as a re-enforcement to be truly grateful for the joys in your life. They are taken too soon.

In 2002, I lost my mom to cancer rather quickly on Thanksgiving just 3 days into her 59th birthday, and it was the worst period of my life. 2002 was a terrible period, with death, setbacks, strife and tremendous loss and grief. I'm not looking for sympathy, but I am sharing so that you hug your loved ones extra hard today b/c there is no promise for tomorrow.
