Thankful - Josh Groban
At this time of the year we often spend quite a bit of time reflecting on the year past and the things we’ve accomplished and those things that we haven’t. We also seem to spend more time with family, friends, and loved ones and when we can’t spend time with them we are certainly thinking about them through our Christmas cards and gifts.
When I bought Josh Groban’s NOEL CD I read through the songs and thought it would be an awesome Christmas album. The first time I heard Thankful it brought tears to my eyes. Holidays have always been a time of reflection for me… and this year is no different. What is different this year is that I was shaken at the foundation with the sudden passing of my Papa Carm. The experience, the loss, has been very sobering, and eye opening for me. We can’t take time back… and as each minute ticks by we lose it forever… that minute is now only available in our memories. I get so busy sometimes that I forget what I am Thankful for… Josh’s song helped me to remember.
This holiday season I would encourage each of you to reflect on the things that you have… the things that YOU are thankful for.
