Thanksgiving

Today it's cold and blustery outside, but I'm warm and happy. I have so many things to be thankful for, things that I really DO notice on a daily basis. I'll post about all the little things as time goes by. For now I'll tackle the most important: I have a family that I love deeply, and they love me. I really don't think anything else matters.

My kids make me want to be the best parent and the best person I can be. They amuse me, they challenge me, they push the limits of my ability. I love watching them grow and change; it's a thrill and an honour to be their mom.

My partner helps me to accept myself and the world around me. He's my rock; he is the voice of reason and caring that carries me through the everyday problems both big and small. He's sexy, funny, trustworthy, a man of the world. With him, I am more comfortable with just being myself.

This past year has seen us grow both figuratively and literally as a family. We've been together as a new little family for about 18 months. We have a new baby. We're much more a team, we're more solid, we're the foundation for each other, and isn't that what family is all about? I'm one blessed, happy, thankful lady.

  1. Seekers of truth can find it in the contiguous dimensional worlds, humorously described by Edwin Abbott in 'Flatland'. Science determines truth by checking phenomena against the over-all theory. If that theory explains the phenomena then we can firmly hold it. 'Techie Worlds' (available at amazon.com) examines Trinity, resurrection, judgment, soul, and finds Christian teaching logical and rational in Abbott's context.
    Unlike Christians, materialists believe that only this world exists. Science can only experiment with this material world, whereas mankind is quite unable to manipulate the higher worlds.. Yet humans report on miracles, on events such as the dance of the sun at Fatima. Pagans believe in many gods (with good reason) and the possessed levitate, all evidence that spirit worlds do exist. Both positions resolve to 'acts of faith', but the Christian (in the Flatland context) is simple, consistent, and teaches love for human improvement. Open your minds with 'Techie Worlds' logical explanations.
