Happy Thanksgiving everyone.
What a wonderful year we are having. People are learning and growing into awesome leaders. Our members are becoming terrific speakers. A new Pathways was rolled out for us. Clubs are starting to go hybrid and meeting in person. Woo Hoo. There is so much to be thankful for. Take a moment to revel in all the things that worked in your favor this past year. Who could possibly ask for a better year giving where we are in life? May the blessings continue to grow on you.
Below are some links to great Toastmaster articles about Thanksgiving. Me personally, I loved the “An Attitude of Gratitude” article. Which one is your favorite. Anyone needing a hint of Thanksgiving Table Topics, here you go. Celebrate to your hearts content as we kick off the holiday season.
Wishing everyone a great and Happy Thanksgiving. I am thrilled that you are all a part of my life. — jim
