Once in a Lifetime

[Tnerb]

Today is Thanksgiving and it is also the first day of Chanukah. This will never happen again in my life time...as well as yours.

 

I'm sitting at home with the heat on to break the chill. I have both graded and raw comic books to put away. I finished reading most of these but I had to pause to remember and to give thanks. Especially on a day never to happen again, which is equivalent to every day we have lived.

 

I am not a holiday person. Age and time have long distorted the days I had once looked forward too. I haven't enjoyed a Thanksgiving for a long time, but I am a thankful person for all that I have...and all that I lost. I sit in comfort. And once in a while when I think about it I know that I am blessed.

 

So today I could talk about the comic books I collect, or I could tell you what a horrendous day today was, or I can just be thankful and thank you all. For any kind word that you have given me or another. For any kind deed you acted on or thought of. And for any time you asked for help for another. I thank you and I hope whether it be this day, or maybe tomorrow, and quite possibly that day when your CGC graded books come back better than you thought or imagined. May today be a great day and May tomorrow be slightly better.

 

Happy Thanksgiving

 

Thanks for Reading
