soft light.
dancing eyes.
belly laughs.
full heart.
smells ignite memories
that are then spoken out loud,
remember when?
around the table,
thanks is given.
for family.
for hope.
for everything,
and for nothing.
it is a day of remembering,
of dreaming,
of coming together.
taking time to be present,
to be humbled by the truth,
that no matter how hard tomorrow is
or yesterday was
we would not be who we are
without the difficult lessons
we are thankful to simply be.
