A Circus Of Emotions

A circus of emotions develop as we enter the weeks of the holiday season... Many families once again this year will have a real struggle to just place nourishment on their tables for their family... To those to whom this may be true and also to those who can afford the finest.. remember gifts need not be necessary.. but rich is heart certainly is...
     Our Thanksgiving and holiday season will once again be spent remembering the good old days and sticking by our ways of just family remains delightfully stress free. Just large bites of pumpkin pie oozing with whipped creme and generous taste of fresh baked cookies can make any holiday memories... It is the peace we feel at these moments when simple sharing takes place that really matters..
     When coming to my blog you are experiencing the lack of sharing of purchases from antique or gift shoppes as it has all but stopped... Not that things we ever plentiful but now they are even less.. It now consists of musings and very simple ways... I have learned even more generous portions of taking time and enjoying small things and taking the moments to reflect and give thanks for them.. I love the peaceful presence I enjoy in my home..{ well now once in awhile things get out of hand with our little rescue puppy as we continue to adjust to one another... but he has become family}.. I hope you all will take a few seconds and reflect on how many lovely blessings we do have daily...

   Give us this day our daily bread, O Father in heaven, and grant that we who are filled with good things from your open hand, may never close our hearts to the hungry, the homeless, and the poor, in the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit.....

Who does not thank for little will not thank for much....  Estonian proverb

I get discouraged when the holidays come around and I see the over-giving of gifts. Kids that grow up that way will expect it their whole life and that is not a good thing in my opinion. I do love to give gifts, but we do not spend lavishly at all. Love the simple gifts the most!!

Your snowflake blog background and falling are so pretty!! Enjoy the simple pleasures!!
Blessings~
