THANKSGIVING
Dear Students, Brian Tracy said, “Develop an attitude of gratitude , and give thanks for everything that happens to you, knowing that every step forward is a step toward achieving something bigger and better than your current situation.” November is the time of year that we historically take stock and give thanks for the abundance of blessings we have. Find the good in every situation. Speak words of thankfulness. Acknowledge others and their contributions to your life. Ella Wheeler Wilcox (1850- 1919) wrote a pertinent poem about the act of thanksgiving. While it is over 100 years old, the words are very relevant toda y. Always, Dr. Beck
We walk on starry fields of white And do not see the daisies; For blessings common in our sight We rarely offer praises. We sigh for some supreme delight To crown our lives with splendor, And quite ignore our daily store Of pleasures sweet and tender. Our cares are bold and push their way Upon our thought and feeling. They hand about us all the day, Our time from pleasure stealing. So unobtrusive many a joy We pass by and forget it, But worry strives to own our lives, And conquers if we let it. There’s not a day in all the year But holds some hidden pleasure, And looking back, joys oft appear To brim the past’s wide measure. Make every day a day of Thanksgiving!
But blessings are like friends, I hold, Who love and labor near us. We ought to raise our notes of praise While living hearts can hear us. Full many a blessing wears the guise Of worry or of trouble; Far-seeing is the soul, and wise, Who knows the mask is double. But he who has the faith and strength To thank his God for sorrow Has found a joy without alloy To gladden every morrow. We ought to make the moments notes Of happy, glad Thanksgiving; The hours and days a silent phrase Of music we are living. And so the theme should swell and grow As weeks and months pass o’er us, And rise sublime at this good time, A grand Thanksgiving chorus.
