Mrs. Brainwise and I found this on our annual "day before Thanksgiving Day" shopping trip to State College, PA. It is a wonderfully humorous message for today ... and it will make a great gift for my parents. (I can already hear my father laughing about it).
Now, for message more in keeping with the true sentiment of this holiday, here is a prayer I wrote, called
Hail Sun:
Hail to thee, Sun !
Who warms the Earth and Sky
Hail to thee, Sky!
Who sends life-giving rains to Earth
Hail to thee, Earth!
Our true Mother, who brings forth food
and sustenance from Her all-giving self
We who gather together
give honor and thanks
to these Natural Powers
to the Source behind
and to all who labor
doing their part
in bringing this meal to pass
Here is wishing you and yours a wonderful holiday. May you have time to reflect on your blessings, and to appreciate those around you, especially the ones you may not necessarily hold close.
