Thanks for Giving....

My favorite time of year is now, with the preparations and thoughts towards Thanksgiving. With all of the trials we face and the hustle and bustle of every day life, it's nice to have a holiday focusing on giving thanks. I just read a news article that has a quote I would like to share. This quote by Elder Richard G. Scott tells it simply, yet beautifully:

"Creativity can engender a spirit of gratitude for life and for what the Lord has woven into your being. Creativity gives a renewal, a spark of enthusiasm, a zest for life that we all need."

May we all give thanks, and allow ourselves to recognize others and voice our thanks for giving of themselves and their talents to make a better and more beautiful world to live in.
