Wishing a good holiday to all those on the Forum. I am fortunate this year: a new grandbaby, no deaths in the family, and progress on personal goals.
I am thankful for all of this, but I am also thankful for all of YOU readers! Your insights, your added content, your overall good humanity gives me hope; and your kind personal messages to me over the past year have been greatly appreciated. It feels like extended family, all over our great nation and beautiful world. All the best to all of you.
Miselle, I second your post. I am grateful to Heather for offering us timely history and yes, to all of you who post here, your life happenings and stories, your passions, your suggestions, your courage. I wish all of you a very serene Thanksgiving and a moment to have gratitude on this day to pause and reflect. We keep our family and friends close, so our neighbors and their daughter will join us tomorrow, a small gathering.
Miselle... I picked a good day to scroll through all of the comments to Heather's letter. I'm glad I found yours. My 2024 has been filled with ups and downs, some personal, some "social study-like." I find myself balancing between the emotions of grief, angry, empathy, apathy. I circle back to a lesson I learned from my time in Iraq working with the Marine Corps: "Embrace the suck and move the heck forward because what over choice do we have." Happy Thanksgiving. v/r ... tjb
When I lost my older brother (also a Marine)to COVID a few years back and mentioned it here, that's when the responses made me realize I was among friends. Stay strong, and thank you for your service.
I, too, Miselle, am grateful for HCR and the community here….I try to read all the comments (to the detriment of getting chores done!) and appreciate the opinions and life lessons shared. Miss some frequent commenters, not heard from in a while, and hope life and times are well with them. Happy holidays all…amidst all this chaos and worry, there is still so very much to be thankful for.
Miselle, you articulated far better than I could my appreciation for the Professor and for this forum. I enjoy my daily perusal of the comments and learn something every day.
I hope those who feel that the war is lost can rest, recover, take hope, and rejoin the fray. Do not obey in advance, and indeed, “embrace the suck” and continue the fight.
No problems at all. It always works perfectly for me. On all my Substack subscriptions. Sounds like you might have an intermittent hardware or Internet access problem.

I'm sorry for the loss of your brother. I hope he doesn't mind that one of your new found friends is a Navy guy. v/r ... tom

Happy Thanksgibing Ally, Miselle & All!
Amen, Miselle, and back at ya
Does anyone else have trouble getting the listening “carrot” (>) to work. I notice it doesn’t seem to work regularly for some reason.

I’m grateful for you, Miselle, and everyone here. Happy Thanksgiving.
