Thanksgiving

Giving thanks is a daily requirement for spiritual health. I see on this medium--more mention of black Friday, then the day that comes before. A clear symptom pointing to the globally rampant disease of materialism. The more we feed the creature that keeps crying, "Me,Mine,More", the stronger it gets it shoves the other sibling housed in the same heart-- "Other,ForYou,Enough" out of the nest.

Some nations have a handle on the balance of materialism and other aspects are missing. Some nations not accustomed to having a capitalistic bent, have lost all perspective and it was ruinous to their existence.

Persons, families, and on out in ever increasing ripples will do well to remember that giving thanks is a daily, spiriutal need, keeping their own greed in check and perfecting their understanding of humility. May God help me in living up to my words.
