Title: happy thanksgiving
Post by: chicagojerry on November 26, 2008, 07:52:29 PM
i would like to wish all of you a very happy thanksgiving. personally, this is my favorite holiday and i always strive to stop and reflect about my continued blessings. in 1987 while still living in illinois, and just prior to thankgiving, after a trying time of lack of work and no health insurance, i got a call to offer me a job in ohio working for ford motor co. my unemployment had run out the week before and good jobs were hard to come by. ever since, this  time of the year i am especially grateful for just how truly blessed i am. even through these tough times that the country is currently going through, we all have much to be thankful for.
god bless you all, enjoy your family on this day to pause and give thanks   chi jer
