Thanksgiving is over for another year. If you celebrate the
holiday I trust your day, your gathering, your trip, your dinner met and
amplified the peace within you.
It seems to me that to designate a single day to give thanks is a
little silly given what we have as a collective whole, we are more than
fortunate compared to the other portions of our world.
I've always liked the philosophy of the Iroquois nation. Their
thanksgiving ceremony takes many days for they verbally thank everything they
can think of. Everything!
Maybe if we were to thank Muslims, Jews, Hindus, Christians
Buddhists and all the other numerous belief systems for the sacredness of their
beliefs we would have the daily comfort of honoring the same God of many names.
Maybe that would work for congress. Instead of giving lip service
to the American people just to get elected each member of congress would give
thanks for other thoughts, thinking, and philosophies. Dreamer.
