I Give Thanks for the Old

Old books whose messages still ring true;
Old songs that bring me comfort in difficult times;
Old photographs that connect me with happy memories;
Friends who I have known for decades, who have known me in good times and bad;
Antiques handed down through the generations;
Childhood interests that still give me a thrill;
Elderly friends and relatives who fill my heart with compassion and who are also a source of inspiration;
Family recipes that make me feel connected with my roots;
For all these and more I am grateful today.
