As this difficult and often terrible year is approaching its end, I have been thinking about what I am thankful for. One such thing that I am deeply grateful for are my readers on this blog. You are a disparate group, but you are also unfailingly intelligent, kind, and civil. I have also made several friendships here with people who live far away, and I am deeply grateful for those connections.
To all my blog followers:
Thank you!

Happy Thanksgiving–2021!
StandardHappy Thanksgiving!
2021, while better than 2020, has still been an extremely difficult year for many people, some much more than others, but this is still a time to find something to be thankful for.
Please remember to recognize the positives and the blessings in your lives.
And please remember to give thanks to those who help us in many ways. So many are away from home, friends, and family, and we should all give them a moment of thanks.
Please try to remember those who are less fortunate, and try to find some kindness and to continue to spread it throughout the year.
To my friends, including my many blogging friends, and family, –thank you! I am grateful for all of you.
I would also like to ask all of you: For what are you thankful?
Happy Thanksgiving!
Quotations On Friendship–In Memory of My Departed Friend and Brother, Neil A. Frederick
StandardThis post is dedicated to the memory of my true friend and brother, Neil A. Frederick. May you rest in peace.
“I would rather walk with a friend in the dark, than alone in the light.”
Helen Keller
“Sweet is the memory of distant friends! Like the mellow rays of the departing sun, it falls tenderly, yet sadly, on the heart.”
Washington Irving
“In the sweetness of friendship let there be laughter, for in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed.”
Khalil Gibran
“True friendship is one of the most valuable treasures of life, not in the way of worldly goods, but for our souls, our spirits, and our beings. True friendship brings its own kind of love and the ability to be oneself with that other person.”
Charles F. French
Happy Thanksgiving–2020: What Are You Grateful For?
StandardHappy Thanksgiving!
2020 has been an extremely difficult year for almost everyone, some much more than others, but this is still a time to find something to be thankful for.
Please remember to recognize the positives and the blessings in your lives.
Enjoy your feasts, your gatherings, and your traditions, but this year, try to hold only small gatherings. The pandemic is real and dangerous. Look forward to large celebrations next year.
And please remember to give thanks to those who help us in many ways. So many are away from home, friends, and family, and we should all give them a moment of thanks.
Please try to remember those who are less fortunate, and try to find some kindness and to continue to spread it throughout the year.

Have a Happy Halloween and a Blessed Samhain!
Standard
I want to wish everyone both a Happy Halloween and a Blessed Samhain!
(http://lubuntu.me/blessed-samhain/)
On the pre-Christian Celtic calendar, October 31 was Samhain, pronounced Soo-when or Sow-when, and it marked the day when the world of the living and dead where at the closest. It is also the end of year, with November 1 as the start of the next year. This day is one of the most important Gaelic/Celtic/Pagan/Wiccan/Druidic holidays of the year! And please do not worry about the devil–he is not a part of Samhain. There is nothing evil here.
Samhain/Halloween is a day to remember those who have passed and to think of the future.
So, enjoy the day, dress up, have candy, party, and raise a toast and wish all a Happy New Year!
