Party #2!
On the Harnett side of things (plus my bro Andy who stayed with us for a few extra days), we had a wonderful Thanksgiving Day relaxing and enjoying each others' company. We watched sports games, talked and laughed, played board games, went for a long walk along the Mission Creek trails, and feasted (once again) on a wonderfully prepared-by-Mom-and-Dad meal.
(We really have it good, don't we. Regretfully, we were so caught up in all our enjoyment of blessings that we neglected to really remember those who are less fortunate than us at this time. When I think about the sorrow and grief in this world, and of how often I take my circumstances for granted I am moved to deep lamenting that I am so quickly caught up in this self-gratifying culture we live in. And yet the ambiguity of life is that we must enjoy what we've been given, with the perspective of suffering in mind. But need that perspective of suffering be at the fore-front of our thoughts whenever we are caught up with the good things of life? Hmmm.... Does anyone have any thoughts to share on this?)
