Happy Thanksgiving!

There are many things to be thankful for. Simple things. Big things. I feel extremely blessed and thankful to God for everything.
Over this weekend, J lent me a movie called "The Secret." It is a vcd that shares the "secret" to life or rather, a new-age philosphy. Some parts of the movie were thought-provoking.

For example, several lives were turned around when they started to make a list of the things they were grateful for. The first few waking thoughts were of gratefulness and thankfulness. ( It is similar to Christians who pray in the morning. It should not be a routine to pray but to feel the feelings of gratitude to God). It is human nature to wallow in negativity but it has to be combated.

AT LLUBMC, we had a special thanksgiving meal for patients and employees.
