Thanksgiving – A time to be thankful

Every year we celebrate Thanksgiving.  One day when we take the time to say THANK YOU to the people who have helped us along the way.  To our families, our friends, co-workers, inspirational influences and the list goes on and on.  I speak from my heart when I say THANK YOU to those who have been part of my life and journey.  Each of you have inspired me to dig deep and help me find the person I lost many years ago.

Reflection

As I reflect on 2016 there have been so many people who have inspired me and helped me make decisions I’ve been talking about for years.  In some cases, their input wasn’t well received.  However, looking back and assuming positive intent, not always an easy thought process, has helped me understand their inputs were coming from a good place and from their experience.

Inspiration

People come into and out of our lives for a reason.  Many times we don’t always understand their importance at the time.  Meeting new people every day inspire me.  They share what motivates them each day.  People share what demotivates them and what they do to motivate themselves again. I love to see their confidence soar, when they solve a challenge they were facing.  Each day is a learning journey.  Students, business owners, employees, family, and friends help me learn something new each day.  I am thankful for all of the people I know and those of you who I don’t know yet.

Take the Time

I will continue to take the time each day to be thankful, reflective, and to celebrate the little things life has to offer.  I encourage each of you to take the time too!  Who knows what will come of it?  Enjoy being thankful and share your thankfulness with others.  They might need your inspiration as much as you need theirs.

Happy Thanksgiving!
