Far be it for me to disagree with the calendar.
But here’s the thing: tomorrow will be just as worthy of thankfulness. No turkey required.
I took this on Friday morning while the dog and I explored the neighborhood. According to the calendar, there was no reason that day to carve an overpriced bird, or set the table for 20, or argue football and politics with relatives we hadn’t seen since the last Thanksgiving.
In other words, an ordinary day.
Yet as I stood beside the ravine and watched the colors unfold in the canopy above, I thought about the extraordinary-ness of this moment, in this place, on this day.
And it didn’t take a calendar to make it so.
So my takeaway is a simple one: every day is extraordinary, and calendars don’t get to define which days are more extraordinary than others.
We do. As long as we stare into the canopy and allow ourselves to be wowed.
So whatever you do today, wherever you may be, and whoever you’re with, I hope it’s filled with color and joy. And when you wake up tomorrow, I hope that’s just as true.
