Keeping the gratitude quiet and simple!

We have much to be thankful for considering what's going on on the planet
where people either don't have anything, or are in the midst of warfare, etc.!
In contrast to the madness that was going on with pre-thanksgiving food
shopping,preparations, etc. my husband and I are basically blowing off the
holiday, and keeping it quiet and simple. Likely we'll go out to the beach or
something, as a bunch of beaches around here have been re-opened.
It will be good to connect with nature on the edge of the Pacific. As a kid,
my aunt always told me that going down to the beach for a walk was good
for just about whatever was on one's mind. Usually one either feels better,
or gets somewhat of a new lease on it anyway. Ocean water is very special
to me as a Pisces-rising. For me it is still like visiting the river Ganges to go
downto the water's edge, bathe my feet, and walk in wet sand, it is that sacred
to me. When we lived out in land-locked New Mexico, when we came back to
SF to visit, we would always go out to the beach, and once again I would feel
in my element! Although being in New Mexico was an amazing experience in
itself, I'm very thankful we are living here once again! I
