As I’ve said many times, Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. No gifts. A good meal. Often a four-day weekend. 66)
But what I like best about the holiday is that it gives us time to actually pause and think about what we’re thankful for
. And I have much this past year. A good relationship(Got married.)Good health.(I have a new knee!)Good times.(A vacation in Argentina.)
Not that Ican’t, and don’t , take it all for granted on occasion. It took a mongrel dog thousands of miles away to make me aware of my good fortune. And she did it with just a wag of her tail.
While in Argentina on vacation, we stayed on a villa(别墅)outside on Cordoba. Its name: Dos Luna. It sits at the end of a dirt road that seems to never end.
67)
When we finally pulled onto the villa, a dog appeared out of nowhere, eager to greet us before we even got of the car.
Her name was Branca. She had wandered onto the place a couple of years ago, hungry, homeless, in need of a good bath and a good meal. To their credit, the hosts took her in. 68)
And no fool was she, she decided to stay.
In return for room and board, she now works as the mascot(吉祥物). A perfect fit for everyone involved.
Branca and I bonded immediately. For your days, she went where I went. 69)
She sat under my table at lunch, she ran alongside us as we rode horses up through the hillside.
I suspected it didn’t hurt any that I fed her from the table, that I scratched her ear as I sat and read. At night, she slept curled up on a chair, not far from our room. It was her chair. All the guests quickly learned that.
Her tail swept the ground whenever I happened to ask if everything is OK.
70)
She was beyond thankful to be right where she was.
And so were we.
Happy Thanksgiving.
But what I like best about the holiday is that it gives us time to actually pause and think about what we’re thankful for.
