    What a wonderful story,expecially this time of the year.I opened our home years ago at Thanksgiving for anyone whom wants to come,(yes even if I don't know them very well).Met one lady at Aldis ,she was a Korean woman with an arm load of dry pinto beans.( her Thanksgiving dinner to be )As I opened the conversation I learned her husband had pasted 6 years earlier,needless to say she is one of our yearly guest,as all of her family is to far away for her to visit.It a shame more folks do NOT open there homes for the people whom have no where to go & are otherwise alone & lonely.

    May father passed away a couple of months ago and Thanksgiving will be quite different for us this year. Thank you for sharing your heartwarming story, it helps to put things into perspective.

    love to do that sassey, but its way too hard to get a 'foot in the door' and get published and can't afford to self publish. Thanks.

    What a lovely story! So often we forget to give the best present of all. It comes in every size, always fits, and everyone can use it. It's friendship and love. And if you're very lucky, they will return it!
