Thanksgiving Thoughts

As for me, I am thankful for every one of you, amigos bonitos. Your many comments, emails, cards and gifts, filled with love and encouragement and stories of your own sadness, travails and triumphs have given me courage and so much faith in your humanity and kindness. I cannot tell you how many times I've re-read your cards, emails and comments, and been comforted by them, nor can I tell you how many times I've slept with gifts -- mostly books -- that you've sent to me, holding them close to my heart throughout the night, and the comfort these items bring me when I wake up in the darkness from a nightmare. I hope that all of you get as much from my wee blog as I have received from each and every one of you. I feel that I am the most blessed person on earth -- because of you.
