It seems like everyone is ready for a little R&R these days … and there’s no better time than the Thanksgiving holiday for a respite with family and friends.

Thanksgiving kicks off the long holiday season … yet it’s devoid of the frantic gift-buying, holiday card creation and party circuit pageantry that surrounds Christmas. Don’t get me wrong. There’s a lot of fun in all of that … but don’t we often get to the end of the Christmas season … exhausted, drained and looking for another holiday to REALLY get a break?

So, savor these moments. Enjoy each others’ company, catch a little Detroit Lion football, watch Santa arrive in the Macy’s day parade … but don’t let the moment pass by without loving the ones you love and who love you … and enjoying and embracing the blessings that fulfill our lives.

Have a fabulous Thanksgiving holiday!
