While others are already shoving the Black Friday offers down your throats, I like to do things a little differently. Just like I don't like to have "Christmas Sales", preferring to celebrate the 12 days of Christmas by giving away stuff... I decided to do that for Thanksgiving this year, too. I recently had a bad health scare. Believe me I'm feeling very, very thankful and blessed to be here.
So I have some thoughts and gifts for you today. They're automatically yours -- in case you're having today "off".
I remember many years ago, I read some words on a plaque...
"God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference."~Reinhold Neibhur
These words, written by an American Theologian have stuck with me and especially on Thanksgiving they come to my remembrance.
Another quote from the Holy Scripture that comes to mind when I think about Thanksgiving is this:
"Give thanks in all circumstances: for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus"~ 1 Thessalonians 5:18
We get anxious over our businesses, little and big aggravations that come our way, but the fact that you are alive and reading these words is enough to be grateful for. Being grateful is a sign that you appreciate life and that you have the capacity to enjoy more from life.
I wanted to take this chance to tell you how thankful I am for you.
Without you, I wouldn't be the person I am today, and I wouldn’t have the growing business or the great team that I have today.
Thank you for your loyalty and your trust.
Below are your "gifts"
Best wishes for a VERY successful rest of the year!
Talk soon,
