- A simple grace.
Some time ago, I wrote a simple grace for use at the Thanksgiving Day table. My aim was to stress the importance of the holiday and the people participating in our lives. It's not very elaborate but it stresses the need to remember these precious moments. I hope you find it useful:
"Let us enjoy the moment, cherish the moment, remember the moment.
Let us first remember those moments where we shared many a story, a joke and debate, With those loved ones at this very table, those who have gone on before us, yet we fondly remember.
Let us now take a moment and make our own mental photograph of every person at this table, what was said, what we looked like, what we ate, and the love in our hearts.
Let us remember this moment, let us cherish this moment, let us give thanks to this moment, as time slips silently away.
Amen."
Have a Happy Thanksgiving.
Keep the Faith!
