Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays. It is a great
time to reflect and thank God for all that we have and
identify all that we can gave.
Every Thanksgiving my kids and I serve an early dinner at
a local soup kitchen. It brings us so much joy to realize
that we can contribute to someone else's happiness simply
by serving them a hot meal. The kids continue to be
humbled by this also and have often said that they feel
empowered to do more because serving makes them feel so
good. My daughter donates part of her allowance on a
monthly basis to the FoodBank of NYC. It is not much but
as she put it: They need it a lot more than I do. That
is chicken soul for my soul and encourages me to give
more also!!!!
Wishing you all a very Happy Thanksgiving!!!
