Shabbat Shalom to all who observe and a happy weekend to everyone!

My prayers go out to Donna's mom, and to her friend, and to all who might be in need of strength and support. I echo all the beautiful sentiments in this thread. My gratitude goes to Sunny for her threads and to all of you who are able to express such love and encouragement in words far more eloquent than anything I can say. Even when we feel sad or discouraged, it's so important to remember simple abundance. Sending wishes for a warm, cozy, peaceful, and bountiful Thanksgiving to all.

I really do thank you all for being here today. I needed it. Hugs and love xox

Shabbat Shalom! I have no family any more.... Thanksgiving (and the High Holidays) are so hard for me. It is always amazing that people who know you are alone don't invite you over. My parents always did that for those they knew who were alone.

I wanted to go to the Salvation Army to feed the hungry, but all slots were filled.

I will try and fill the day with things that will take my mind off of the special day. I will take a long walk, watch some football and read or watch a movie.

Rejoice if you have family all around. Cherish them and feel blessed that your loved ones are with you on Thanksgiving and every day.

DARING GREATLY, welcome to our weekly Shabbat Shalom group. I would imagine that it could be lonely on holidays when you have nobody to share them with. Is there any place other than the Salvation Army where you could volunteer? Soup kitchens and homeless shelters are also in need of helpers. I hope that whatever you do, you will try to remember your blessings, and maybe the day will turn out better than you think.

I'm not so thrilled with the way our plans are turning out either, but it's the way life goes.

Please come back next week? We are here every Friday and would love to see you. Hugs to you.
