Desperately Seeking…Something
It’s Thanksgiving in Canada, and gratitude is on my mind. I have a great deal to be thankful for, a wonderful husband who loves me in spite of me being, well, me, 3 great boys, and an adorable puppy. I have a roof over my head and plenty of food to eat.
Sure, life isn’t perfect. Like almost everyone else, there never seems to be enough money, and there are things I want that I can’t have right now. And it was those things I started thinking about when I read Nancy Blackman’s Weekly Prompt in Refresh The Soul:
It poses the following question:
What would be the greatest gift you could receive right now?
My first thought was money. Enough money to get me back East, near the ocean, on a little plot of land where I can have an organic farm and a pet sanctuary.
That’s my dream, to spend my days farming, surrounded by and loving all the kitties and puppies, and of course, writing, with no other humans…
