The unknown is what is. And to be frightened of it is what sends everybody scurrying around chasing dreams, illusions, wars, peace, love, hate, all that. Unknown is what is. Accept that it's unknown, and it's plain sailing. John Lennon

My writing group facilitator assigned us to write down five things we are thankful for and write a paragraph about each, then after thanksgiving write about the actual experience of Thanksgiving day. A little alternative to sitting around the table asking everyone to say something they are thankful for. So this list just popped up for me and I thought I would share it with one group I am thankful to have shared and am sharing this big beautiful and dangerous world with. Wonder what you all’s Five Thanks might be:
Cinco Gracias
Google Translate
The time I was born into
Learning to read and write
My teachers
Poetry and song
Happy Thanksgiving!?
