The evening news has gotten so bad, I can hardly watch it anymore. Stocks are down, jobs have disappeared, and on and on.
But now it's almost Thanksgiving, and in spite of the cold weather, I saw a little aster like this one the other day. It's a Tatarian aster, a big, rangy plant you could almost mistake for a weed, until you look close and see how beautiful each individual blossom is. I love its color and symmetry and simplicity.
It reminded me to be thankful for the simple gifts in life, because even when the world is messy and sad, God loves us and there is always, always hope.
Happy Thanksgiving!
