Driving the other day, I found a country station with this song on it.
The words fit the times, I think.Β If only it were that simple.
If everybody everywhere
Had a lighter load to bear
And a little bigger piece of the pie
We’d be livin’ us a pretty good life
And that’d be alrightGo heavy on the good and light on the bad
A hair more happy and shade less sad
Turn all that negative down just a tad
That’d be alrightIf my dear old dog never got old
If the family farm never got sold
Another bad joke never got told
That’d be alright
Psalm 72:16 May there be abundance of grain in the land; on the tops of the mountains may it wave; may its fruit be like Lebanon; and may people blossom in the cities like the grass of the field!
Happy Thanksgiving, MJ. I’m thankful for our (blog) friendship and all the ways you encourage and inspire your readers. I really hope that we can meet in person one day!
and a hearty Happy Thanksgiving to you, Dianna. I’m grateful for our blogging connection, too. I hope you, MM, Marshall and Sundae-girl have a very happy day today. And yes, I would love to meet in person one day, how fun would that be? MJ
Love the post (and the pie). Happy Thanksgiving MJ.
Thank you so much, David. The sun is shining and it’s supposed to be 60F here today; old dog is lazing in the sunshine, not far from the smells of the kitchen. It will be a good day, and I am grateful,
MJ
