Journaling:
I find sweet peace in depths of autumn woods,
Where grow the ragged ferns and roughened moss;
The naked, silent trees have taught me this -
The loss of beauty is not always loss!

Journaling reads: Thanksgiving 2021. The fifth Thanksgiving
that was just ... different.
Thanksgiving 2017. We gathered at Jessica and Terry's ... without Tim.
Thanksgiving 2018. We gathered at Jessica and Terry's ... without Tim, but with
Mark.
Thanksgiving 2019. Mark and I stayed in NC and shared the meal with Mark's
daughter, Jenifer, and family.
Thanksgiving 2020. We gathered at Jessica and Terry's ... COVID-19 surging all
around.
Thanksgiving 2021. Mark and I stayed in NC and shared the meal with Mark's
daughter, Jenifer, and family. Jenifer was sick with pneumonia after COVID.
And, yet, we are blessed above measure...more than we deserve.
I love your happy smiles. It shows your joy of the life you have been given! I
thank God for your smiles. I pray the Lord's blessings on your lives! Praise
God from Whom all blessings flow! Praise Him all creatures here below. Praise
Him above, ye heavenly hosts! Praise Father, Son and Holy Ghost!
