Patti and I wish you all a HAPPY, JOYOUS, AND SAFE THANKSGIVING.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n Our human minds are really something. They can work at “breakneck speed” BUT at any given millisecond they can only do one thing.<\/p>\n \u00a0IF we can celebrate what is good and what we are thankful for, then our minds will not focus on what isn\u2019t good and what is frustrating. As I know from my own life experiences and serious bouts with long term depression, it is not always easy, especially when one has serious, challenging, health issues to \u201cLook at the bright side\u201d.<\/p>\n Patti and I plan to have a low key, easy and relaxed Thanksgiving Day. We opted out of a meal with friends. Patti and I plan to attend meetings at 10am and at 3:30pm at the Sun Club here in Lake Havasu City.\u00a0<\/p>\n America\u2019s Thanksgiving holiday, born in the 1500s, mythologized in 1621, and observed even during the bleakest hours of the Civil War, now stands as one of the nation\u2019s most anticipated and beloved days \u2014 celebrated each year on the fourth Thursday in November (November 27, 2025).
