Thanksgiving!


Ah Trukey day...Over the last few day, in preparation for "the question", I've been thinking alot about what I'm thankful for this year. I find myself quite ambivalent about the subject.

Don't get me wrong, in the grand scheme, I have a lot to be grateful for: family, friends, a roof over my head... the usual blessings that are too often overlooked, or at least under played the rest of the year.

As I review the past, this year in particular, I find myself re-evaluating my future (so much for savoring the moment). I feel like there have been a number of of seemingly minor events that have got me asking some major questions. Questions that I thought I had finally gotten the answers to. Questions like " Where I'm I going", "What do I want to do(career-wise)" and " Where do I want to be this time next year" and "Am I ever going to get to try a Turducken ( mmm...Truducken). The answer that keeps coming back it " I don't know".

As you can imagine the phase " I don't know" doesn't sit to well with a control-freak, know-it-all such as myself... but perhaps Mary Schmich put it best when she wrote "Don't worry about the future. Or worry, but know that worrying is as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubble gum." ( I was pretty good at algebra...kinda)

As I continue to search for the key to the universe I shall leave you with this...Happy Thanksgiving! Go eat drink and be merry for tomorrow...there's LEFT OVERS.

Oh, and THANK YOU ;-)
