In this special season of amber light,
when day turns early into night,
we’re asked to pause—
to feel—
to see
the quiet truths that set us free.......
A feeling of deep Gratitude rises soft and low,
not for the ease,
but what we grow
inside the storms we didn’t choose,
the moments carved from loss and bruise.....
It whispers loudly...
“Even here, there’s something true.
Even now, life’s holding you.”
For blessings live in the simplest of things—
the breath that just moves,
the light it generates,
the heart that heals a bit each day,
the strength you gained along the way....
Thanksgiving is a deeper art—
a turning inward of the heart,
where noticing becomes a door
to see what you ignored before.
So pause…
let stillness draw you in,
feel gratitude deep....beneath the skin.
Never forced or too loud—
but just living
in the untouched corners
of your being....
In this reflection, you may find
a shift, a lightness in the mind—
a sense that even what was breaking
was somehow shaping
your becoming....
This is the deeper thought to hold:
that gratitude, whispered and brave and bold,
is how the soul remembers living—
and how we rise
through this Thanksgiving.
