Thanksgiving:
it's so much more than turkey and stuffing and pumpkin pie.
it's so much more than parades and football and beer.
it's so much more than shopping all day Friday for Christmas.
it's all about friends and family.
these are difficult times, but we all have so very much to be thankful for.
how easy we forget and take for granted what we have.
we all need to be more grateful.
this Thanksgiving I am most grateful that Don is healing and getting stronger every day.
he has been an inspiration to everyone of us, and a true example of a hero and a champion.
he is certainly mine.
he has managed to push thru every day,,,every week,,,mile by mile of this adventure.
always strong, never a complaint, even tho there certainly were some very tough days.
more interested in how all our training and races were going than his own race against cancer.
I chat with Don almost every day,,,it's part of my day. I get much of my strength from him.
he just makes it better. Funny, we are call him to give him our strength, our encouragement, but what we really want is to know he is better,,,and we go away from a conversation with Don pumped up and ready to run another 100m.
So, we all have Don to thank this Thanksgiving, for teaching us so many lessons, and for his amazing strength and love of life. And for his love for all of us.
Happy Thanksgiving All, hug your best friend, they are rare.
