Today, especially this year, with all the turmoil in the world, we should all count the blessings God has given to us and be grateful for the time we have with our family and friends.
From the Cow Pasture, I wish for you a day filled with laughter, love and blessings.
Happy Thanksgiving!

100WCGU – Week#175 …but shall we close the borders…
This week, Julia has given us a prompt that may provoke thought or even stir the caldron of controversy. I hope my story makes you think, especially about the victims. ~~~~~

Jason reached for his wife. The bed was cold and empty. He hurried down the stairs, sniffing the air for the coffee Sarah would have waiting. No coffee? He shivered. “Honey?”
He stepped into the dark kitchen and reality grabbed him around the throat. Shaking, he sank into a chair. How could dinner turn into such terror?
He didn’t want to watch news coverage of the attacks, but he needed to.
His anger grew as he listened to the reporter defend and lecture … but, shall we close the borders?
Where was the outrage, compassion, and sympathy for the victims?
Who would speak for them?
“I will, Sarah,” he said, his anger turning to tears. “I will.”
