Gratitude

Taking a quick break from the art series….

Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. It feels simpler - like an invitation to reflect on all that the year has brought - not just the good, but the difficult and maybe for some the tragic. G.K. Chesterton said, “The greatest of poems is an inventory”
