Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
I have a LOT to be thankful for and I feel very blessed. I was born in a land that dreams can and do come true. The Yonderosa is some of the best evidence of that. My lovely wife and I have dreamed of this place for decades. We knew if we saved, educated ourselves and looked hard we would eventually find it. All of that work makes it even more special to us now that we've found it. There are many more chapters yet to be written and we go enthusiastically forward with much optimism. We hope that by sharing our experience it will inspire and energize you to follow your dreams.
"I learned this, at least, by my experiment: that if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he had imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours." --Henry David Thoreau - Walden, or Life in the Woods
May you find, just as the Pilgrims did, your place in the world to live free, pursue happiness and gratefully acknowledge the many wonders that lead you there.
Happy Thanksgiving

I am grateful that I turned out to be a good wife, mother and now Grandmother. I was once told by a boy in high school that I would be a horrible wife because he didn't get his way. For some reason his words stuck in my head, but I AM a great wife, and a wonderful mother and I love and spoil my grandgirls! So I am grateful for that as silly as it may sound...and he has been married twice...which makes it doubly nice!!
ReplyDeleteI'm grateful that while the first 20 years of marriage were pretty sucky, I now have the type that most people get when they start. And I'm BEYOND thankful for that.
ReplyDeleteOh wait, it's with the same guy. :)
Sitting in the deer stand all Thanksgiving day in the pouring rain and high winds I was thankful for hand warmers, rubber boots and ballistic nylon rain gear!
