Thanksgiving Celebrated 4th Thursday of November

The first thanksgiving was in 1621. It happened when the Native Americans had a great farming season and the pilgrims were running out of food. The Native Americans decided that they would save the pilgrims from starvation and invited them to a great feast. If this act of kindness did not happen the pilgrims would have died. In this great feast they ate turkey for the main course, pumpkin, cranberries, corn etc. In the late 1700 Gorge Washington declared that the third Thursday of November would be Thanksgiving, a day to celebrate the generosity that the pilgrims had received from the Native Americans.

A Thanksgiving Prayer

Thank you Father for the blessings you've given this day

Help us to remember, Thou has shown us the way

And give us strength to help those in need.

Never letting us forget, Thy merciful deeds.

Keep us in Thy tender loving care.

Save us, O Lord, when we are in despair!

Give us grace as we walk through life.

Inspire us to seek our brothers amid the strife.

Victory in Thee will be our guiding star.

In courage we march not caring how far.

Now we ask for the most important thing.

Grant us salvation to escape death's sting.

This is love :x

This is love: to fly toward a secret sky,

to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment.

First, to let go of live.

In the end, to take a step without feet;

to regard this world as invisible,

and to disregard what appears to be the self.

Heart, I said, what a gift it has been

to enter this circle of lovers,

to see beyond seeing itself,

to reach and feel within the breast.

*****

The springtime of Lovers has come,

that this dust bowl may become a garden;

the proclamation of heaven has come,

that the bird of the soul may rise in flight.

The sea becomes full of pearls,

the salt marsh becomes sweet as kauthar,

the stone becomes a ruby from the mine,

the body becomes wholly soul.

*****

Last night you left me and slept

your own deep sleep. Tonight you turn

and turn. I say,

"You and I will be together

till the universe dissolves."

You mumble back things you thought of

when you were drunk.

poems from Jalal Al-Din Rumi

Just kiss me :-*

Just kiss me :-*

Kiss me
Your big red lips, i think, will be enough

Don't worry with your lipstick
I'm gonna kiss it all away
Throw away your lipstick
That ain't your color, anyway

My lips are your color
So lips, stick with me!

Ooo, when you kiss me
I've got to know just how much you miss me

Kiss me :-*
And i'll take your lips to paradise
Kiss me
And paradise will never feel so nice

You're beautiful
You don't need all that make up
And you don't need to take up
All of your time in front of the mirror
Don't you know that you're my deara
Baby, can't you see we're in love

Ooo, when you kiss me
I've got to know just how much you miss me

Kiss me :-*
And put all the stars back in the sky
Kiss me
And maybe then you'll know the reason why
I want you
And my love's gonna haunt you
And i'm gonna flaunt you

I'm in love
Love
I'm in love

I'm in love
Sweet love
