Although not a pagan holiday, I generally like to sit back and think about the great things in my life during this time. I have so much to be thankful for - here is a short but by no means all inclusive list:
* My dogs - without them there are days I wouldn't get out of bed!
* My business and wonderful customers - I have lucked out in my business and really had a chance to meet some wonderful, creative and caring people.
* M y family - although we do not always get along, I am glad to have them around and slap me around at times when I need to be slapped. Sometimes I just wish we were all a bit closer together.
* My friends - I have very few friends locally - most of them are on the internet but it always amazes me how even though you are far away from people, they can still offer you caring, comfort and support!
* My coven - the most wonderful sisters I could ask for!
* My Boyfriend - granted sometimes I want to kill him - but he still makes me smile most of the time.
* My heath - this one has been difficult to be thankful for this year because I have had so many health problems. However, I am still here, and still ticking and most of the time, still feeling ok. There are people out there that have much less than I do - I am blessed to have what I have!
* My faith - My beliefs and my faith have carried me through many dark times - specially in the last year and I am thankful that Hecate has been with me every step of my journey.
* My home - with the economy hitting so many people so hard, I am thanful to be able to make a living for myself, and to be able to pay my bills. Even though this year has been tight, I seem to always have the things I need and I am so thankful for that.
* My love of the simple things in life - I am so glad I am able to enjoy simple things in life - like a movie, a cup of coffee/tea, relaxing at home, etc. There was a time when I yearned for bigger things and no matter how much I had it never seemed like enough. I am so thankful that I have found my balanace.
Most of all - I am thankful the Gods have granted me one more year to learn, grow, connect and find happiness. Life is short - everyday is a gift and I am so glad to have received so many!
And finally one of my favorite pictures below - that always makes me feel free and content!
