It's Thanksgiving Weekend in Canada and as always we are beyond grateful for our multi-blessed lives. The thing is, we give thanks silently or out loud almost every day. So, yes it's a day to honour and be grateful but up here it's 24/7/365.
The proof is in, and on the ground. Great year for fruit trees, pond leaves, and buzzing bees. Not hard to get a handle on things...
Our eyes focus on autumn wildlife, even if the camera doesn't always focus. Juncos pass through in hungry flocks. Praying mantis change from green to brown. The fox prowls restlessly. And a young deer munched casually right by the pond.
Duties of the season? Clean the view windows. Advance voting in township and city. Have familiar Chinese and walk around in our old hood.
How's your aura? Much of our sense of gratitude comes from the serenity and ever-changing wonder at home. Unlike a lot of the world, we still have enough rain but not too much. Tree leaves riot in living colours. Pick-your-own-apples up and down the lane. Thankyou, thankyou, thankyou.
So here's hoping you feel gratitude today, your own pot of gold at the end of your rainbow...
