Give thanks

First of all, I want to say Happy Thanksgiving to all of my Street Sense Media co-workers and customers. I think all my customers are very mindful when they show me their support and their gratitude.

How’s your gratitude today? Do you have a good attitude?

I always thank God the Father for every Thanksgiving Day. I am particularly gratefully and wonderfully made. Make sure to wish you family, best friends, good friends, and co-workers well.

I’m thankful for today. I hope my papers be all sold on Thanksgiving Day, or this weekend.

And I look forward to eating on a good holiday — it’s time to cut that jive turkey up!

Thanksgiving is a day to give thanks to God and for our family and friends that love us. The Street Sense Media paper is part of a movement to end homelessness in our great country of America. So, please support us.

Thanksgiving is thanks and gratitude. I’m thankful for the “Most High.” My higher power keeps me safe. He walks with me and talks to me. So, I thank Him and offer gratitude for not letting people rent space in my head for free. 

Flee the devil. Spread love.

With Thanksgiving here and Christmas around the corner, it is time for many family and friends who celebrate to be together after getting vaccinated.

There will be presents under the tree and joy to everyone. Hope and pray that I will be with my family and friends this season. I hope we see a snow white winter this year with kids building snowmen, which is fun. 

I will send Christmas cards to my son and family and give them to the people who are close by. Be safe and blessed.

Thanksgiving is the holiday of thanks and gratitude. “Street Sense,” a.k.a. the street paper that gives the gift of a lifeline for the future of not being homeless: the opportunity and the inspiration for getting off the streets. 

The simple pleasures to focus on are being housed and in control of your life with the joy of having the keys to a place you can call home: a space all your own and somewhere to go at night. Be grateful, the best parts are a bedroom to lay your head and a bathroom for a good night’s bath.
