Thanksgiving: The Season of Turning

The days grow shorter, and the river carries us into winter’s quiet. This season is not only about a single day of gratitude, but about noticing the subtle ways life asks us to pause, to gather, to release.

Leaves have already fallen, yet their memory lingers—reminding us that beauty often comes just before letting go. The air carries both stillness and anticipation, a rhythm that invites us to reflect on what has been and what is yet to come.

In these weeks, gratitude feels less like a feast and more like a practice: a steady noticing of warmth in conversation, of light in the early dusk, of the river’s patient flow.

May we carry this awareness forward, not as a holiday but as a way of being—attuned to the quiet gifts that arrive with each season’s turning.

Happy Thanksgiving!
