Despite everything - and the ease to focus on the negative - this is a day to recall the people and things for which you are grateful.

And there is a lot for which to be grateful.  When patients pull ‘I have nothing to be grateful for’, or ‘How can I be grateful as X is in my life?” stances, I respond:‘Nevertheless (or) Regardless, be grateful for Y.” 

One of the things for which I am grateful is you, my blogger buddies. You all are an important part of my life.  I thank you all for coming to visit.  

I thank you all for sharing your lives as you do.  

I thank you that I am part of your own blogging process.  

I thank you for caring. 

And  I thank you for being who you are. 

Urs, 

Michael
