You can’t change this tree by how you view it, but you can change how you feel about it. This glorious yellow bloom in the trees and on the ground can be a source of glee and wonder.OR you can think of the pollen, messiness and possible allergies.
You can also hold both thoughts at the same time…a source of both misery and happiness.
You could also walk or drive by lost in thought and miss the magic…
Choose wisely
Thanksgiving Day has so many special aspects that highlight how much we have to be grateful for. You get to pick your focus- family, friends, football, feast, foliage and so much more. It is easy to get swept up in the planning, or to feel sadness if something from the past is no more- Taking a few moments to get quiet, and focus on what is going right can turn that around.
