I like that you said to Jesus, "No relationship works well if we aren’t honest, right?"

Is that why they call it Charbucks instead of Starbucks? I never noticed until you brought it up.
And, come on Marcus... middle age? You are not even close, my friend.

Thanks for a beatifully written piece. Loved the read. (and the coffee!)

I fixated on the coffee description. So much so that I hopped over to Wildfire to check them out. Now I want to know what flavor you were brewing.

Oh, and about all that "thanks" stuff...appreciate your sharing your inner child.

Please don't call yourself middle aged anymore. Because if you are, what am I? ;-)

A Squanto Dance video may or may not happen.

Jennifer. I love what you said about "thanks"

it seems so trivial....

But I know that the RLB exercise .. and the previous one sponsored here on "retreat " -- has really got me thinking.

I'm involved in so many things I dont any of them right. SOOOO, I'm working on it.
I actually said 'no' to leading a "Truth Project" 12 week class. I felt guilty. Then I felt good.

Marcus, your concept of rest is pretty intriguing. Rest is found in discovering the wonder of life. And, according to the commandments, it takes time to discover all of that.

coffee didn't make my list. Maybe I should edit and add Number 6 - Flavor.

and I have a way better coffee pix if you would like it...

A friend of mine, whose 4-year-old son recently survived a battle with e-coli, says she has been trying to come up with a new word for "thanks." Sometimes, the words "Thank you" can feel that way -- an inadequate way to express gratitude deep within. But beneath the words here, Marcus -- and then over at Ann's -- the deeper thanks rise to the surface. I appreciate what you've shared here.

Your thought about dancing in the leaves with a general thanks-for-it-all reminds me of Ann's Thanksgiving reflection today. Great minds... : )

And just generally (hah!) I loved this post. The images, the language, the honesty... yeah, call this part of the comment my dance in the cyberleaves at GoodWord.

Mmmm - nothing wrong with being thankful for coffee. I'm being very thankful for the espresso I'm brewing right now . . .

And I'm with Cheryl. Can you post a video of the squanto hop??

Happy Thanksgiving!

Coffee and Jesus - I'm with you there. And I love your list. Funny thing is, my stepdaughter said she just wanted to relax on Thanksgiving. We're having friends over for dinner and somehow she got this idea that we'd all be dancing. It's a party, right? (I mean, that IS what we do every time we have guests over. Whatever!!)

Could you video the squanto hop and post the link? We might need to teach it to our friends. :-)
