3 gifts found in community…This is an interesting one.
What exactly does it mean? Well, to find out, I did a little google search on the word, com·mu·ni·ty /kəˈmyo͞onitē/

Noun

Hmmm…well, that didn’t really help much! I guess community just means a bunch of people who hang out together!
The value of community is probably what I am most thankful for. The people who are there to support me, encourage me, and love me, just for who I am.
Nothing more, nothing less. Just me.
Without a sense of community, life becomes a very lonely place. It is important and yes, even necessary to belong to a group of people. People you can relate to, and feel comfortable with. People who make your heart happy, and your soul soar.
1. Our grandkids certainly fill up our community…a group of little people we love with all our hearts!
2. Sometimes, community can be found in a singular place. The arms of someone who loves you very much.
3. And sometimes you witness the effects of community and the pride and joy it can bring when people join together for one common goal. A team victory!
Just a few of the many things that I am so very thankful for today.
What are you thankful for?
Will you join me in looking for these gifts and sharing them with others?

Oh wow! You just made my day! It’s never too late to be thankful, and I’m really glad you stopped by to share your thoughts. You put a smile on my face, and I’m thankful for you! I hope your weekend is full of good things and moments! 🙂

Hope the rest of your week is great!
Lovely family photos, Becky. Family is the best community to be in indeed. 🙂
It certainly is. Sometimes, it can be a little frustrating, but I can’t imagine my world without them in it. I tried to stress the importance of family to my kids when they were growing up, and hopefully they will pass this on to their children as well. I think that they are doing a pretty good job of it so far 🙂 It certainly is a much needed and treasured community, that’s for sure!
