Hidden Treasure

As much as there are challenges in the past year, if we look intently, we may find that there were blessings not realized.

A few days ago I asked a question on Facebook; “What are you grateful for?” And 50% replied “Life.” Others said “Peace & Sound Mind.” People were grateful for “Second Chances and God’s Grace.”

I stated gratefulness for “Vision; Natural & Futuristically” mainly because they both have a tendency to get blurred if unfocused. 

But in thinking about this upcoming Thanksgiving, to many, it may feel like a different kind of holiday in the way we may gather. Yet, if we really take the time to recall the three hundred plus days that’s past and make a list of all encounters that were “good”… like people being kind, making unexpected connections, avoiding a car accident, having an accident but not taking a loved one’s life or time well spent with a loved one who past away but scattered the earth with seeds left to grow trees…we just may discover a hidden treasure chest of countless things gone well… laying unnoticed, quietly buried beneath Autumn’s leaves… blessings overlooked like, “Rising with the Sun.” – TSH 2020
