thanks & praises

"The Pilgrims made seven times more graves than huts... nevertheless, set aside a day of Thanksgiving." - H. W. Westermayer

Though harvest festivals are celebrated all over the world, Thanksgiving Day in the US is unique due to its secular approach of expressing thanks.

I usually write about past Thanksgivings, this year I'm all about the present. Though money may be too tight to mention, I have much to be thankful for. By far, out of all my years on the Net, this one has been the most fruitful. The site's on track to double last year's visits, which had doubled from the year before - this truly exceeds my expectations. I'm thankful for all that take the time to stop by; readers are the currency of the Blogosphere, it's what keeps a person going.

This year, I've made lots of new friends and acquaintances, many whose creativity inspires my own, I'm not sure how you could put a price on something like that. So, here's to all of you - hopefully, your year has had as much to be thankful for as mine.
