How am I thankful for you?
When I walk to you, I hope to experience simply a spring breeze, yet you give me a full spring.
How am I thankful for you?
When I walk to you, I hope to feel simply the spray of the waves, yet you give me a vast sea.
How am I thankful for you?
When I walk to you, I hope to find one pretty red leaf, yet you give me a whole maple grove.
How am I thankful for you?
When I walk to you, I hope to kiss a snowflake, yet you give me a whole white, silver world.
–By Wang Guo Zhen, Chinese poet (translated by a friend…and edited a bit more to make sense in English by me)
Sent to me by that sweet Chinese friend with the following message:
Happy Thanksgiving Day! Thanks for being so nice to me. Thanks for our Good Book study.
So, so thankful today.
