Dan, I am sooooo glad that everything went well.  I will keep you in my prayers.  Without praying I don't know where I would be right now.  Still looking forward to seeing you my friend.  Hope to see you soon and keep in touch.  I will say without even knowing you you have been a great friend and i thank you so much for that.  You really made me feel better when my best friend my Mom passed away and thank you for everything.  Your friend, Robin

Romans 15:5-6
May the God who gives endurance and encouragement give you a spirit of unity among yourselves as you follow Christ Jesus, so that with one heart and mouth you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Unity comes from God's Spirit as we follow Jesus. But unity has a purpose much deeper than our getting along with each other. Jesus prayed that we would be one so the world would know that God sent him (John 17). We want to be united so our praise can bring glory to God. Unity is far more than a goal, it is a process through which the world learns of Jesus and we glorify the Father who sent him and saved us. Can you think of anything more fundamental to our faith than that!

Ephesians 4:32
Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.

Be kind and compassionate, -- two qualities that seem to be in short supply. Maybe its because we hold up the wrong heroes, but these two qualities are often seen as a sign of weakness rather than strength. To forgive as God forgave us requires great courage and great strength. So let's be strong!

1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus.

Where does your heart live? That's what these verses are all about. Is there a constant awareness in your life that God is present? Is he the unseen but always present companion in all your ups and downs? Or is God here when it is convenient and gone when things are busy? Joy comes from knowing we are never alone. Prayer is the ongoing conversation we have, Spirit to Spirit, with God. Thanksgiving is the great reminder that we have been blessed no matter what the circumstances may suggest.
Some will not understand your ways as others do, your sending Hugs and Kisses to all.  We must remember there are souls out there that have been abused in many ways and sometimes we can hit a tender spot of pain that we don't mean too.  Let us respect one another in all things and continue to give love as you do.  I know you as a kind and caring man and being from the same time era as you I understand your values.  It is just your way, do not be insulted by a response from others who may be caring a burden within that you cannot know. Respect another opinion even if it doesn't match up to your own, at least respect theirs as they should yours.  It is hard for us to know in what way someone may mean something not being able to see and hear each other in person, we must take that into consideration.  Also, Dan I have done a lot of studying on the subjects you mentioned, beware of the wolves in sheeps clothing, it's not always what it seems. Nothing comes without a price and I for one am not willing to pay the price that our government is going to bring with it's backdoor, hidden amendments and agenda. Check out who these 47 Czars are and their backgrounds, that alone should make all of us worried, they answer to no one but Obama. Go to you tube if and when you have some time and take a look around, also newsmax.com, there is a lot of real information out there that will scare the ------ out of you.  Love and Hugs my friend - and yes a big ole kiss on the cheek.†♥

I've already been to the site and having read all the final stories, I truly felt Karen's story to be my true choice.  I really give her Kudos - I don't know if I could have been strong enough to do all that she is doing on my own. God Bless her and Della and the rest of her family members.
  Yes, some of us are in the same situation with lost family members for one reason or another, if led too amends should be made or contact pursued. Then for others too much time and changes have distanced them to the point of being strangers, in some cases it may be better to let laying dogs lie. Every one has different stories and sometimes what's broken can't be mended but if it can I say go for it. God Bless you and Keep you in His loving care my friend. Hugs †♥

What a great sweet blog.  You have a heart of gold my friend.  It sure made me think about all the Thanksgiving traditions our family shared. All the old timers and parents (except Terry's Mom) are gone now, every but three of my brothers live in other states. So many family and good friends have passed over the last ten years, so the circle becomes smaller.  I have the best family - the family of Christ. We are a small flock but we are His.  I'm thankful my daughter and new grand baby are here for this one. So, now we the older ones are the head of traditions to carry on, may we always keep the Lord first for He is our provider and to Him should go all the thanks for all He gives to us. .......................................................
May flowers always line your path and sunshine light your day.  May songbirds serenade you every step along the way.  May a rainbow run beside you in a sky that's always blue.  And may happiness fill your heart each day your whole life through.  ~Irish Blessing ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
God's Grace and Blessings to you and yours, Hugs **

Hi Dan!
  Great Blog. When I read what you wrote here about even tho loved ones are gone, they are still with us now, really made me think that even tho my parents are both gone, that they still are with me. I lost my dad one week before Thanksgiving quite a few years ago and my mom one week before Christmas in 99 so holidays are tough for me but reading your blog has made me feel better knowing that my parents are with me in my heart during the holidays. I hope you and your family have a safe holiday season and have fun making some  memories. luv ya!

hi Dan  i just want to let u and all your fans know what a remarkable man u are.the friendship we have shared has lasted a life time, and for that iam blessed.{thank u ) As i was reading your blog the first time i cryed so hard that i made my self sick, after about an hour i went back to read it again, then it hit me why i was so affected by what u were saying so i have chose to share a part of my life with u and all the wonderfull people that u touch in hopes that those of us who are hurting so deeply on the inside can forgive  let go and move on to a better place.
       It was two weeks befor Thanksgiving 1956, i was 7 years old and  was so excited about being picked to be in the school play that i chose to stay  home with my adopped father and not  go with my mother so that  i could practice for my big part., that night the unthinkable happened and my life changed forever. I remember passing out from the pain and when i woke up i was looking up at this  hundred pound man who was telling me to go clean myself up,at that moment  a part of my heart was filled with hate and has always. made this time of the year difficult
  Dan your words in your blog gave me the courage to, face what happened and enabled me to forgive and finally put this issue to rest, thank you for sharing you wonderfull memories of your thanksgivings and helping me to find peace and comfort I truly will be thankfull this year, again thank you.
                                                                                       
                                                                                             LOVE U COOKIE

Hi Dear friend, yes , food tastes better on holidays, because you share it with love ones and lots of love and good memories in the air. If we could put as much love in our food as grandma used to, we would all be better cooks. Wishing all your way a very Happy Thanksgiving, love and hugs to all...
