Giving thanks.

It’s not Thanksgiving for another week, but as I left work today, I just had to smile. At close to 5:30 p.m. on a Wednesday in November, in Boston, it was a balmy 64 degrees. I couldn’t believe it. It was also a blessing not only to be working again, but also doing work that I loved and was called to do. That is a rarity for a lot of people in this world.

Also, earlier in the day, I came across a few good colleagues I hadn’t seen in some time. And like Cheers, they all knew my name, and was glad I came (back).

After a nice train ride to Cambridge and a pleasant walk home in the comfortably cool night breeze, I came into the house to my smiling nieces and wife.

I have had days better than this one, and God knows, I‘ve had days worse. However, I thank God, I had today.
