the question of tradition...

Thanksgiving is probably the most "traditional" day of the year. People eat the same foods, watch the same teams play football and usually see the same people. I had the pleasure of a holiday where the only thing that was traditional was the turkey (which was the best I have ever tasted.)

I spent the day with old friends, friends I met for the first time and in a home that has become very comfortable to spend time in. My only sadness is that the amazing hosts of the meal will be returning to live in the southeast.

This week reminds me that I should be happy for now, look forward to what might be in store for me and that life is ever changing. People are in your lives for specific times and specific reasons. Enjoy them while you can.
