It is time to celebrate Mabon! The second of three harvest Sabbats, it is a good time to give thanks for all that The Divine has provided us! Of course, we need to understand that there are those less fortunate, and some of them will feel abandoned by The Divine. It can happen, and it does. It even happened to me. Are you surprised? I'm not surprised that it could have happened to me. One basic truth about the mundane world is the fact that no matter how terrible you consider your lot in life, there might well be someone whose own lot is worse than yours. And here I will share a story I found about some people who had been through a situation much worse than any I've experienced. And what they discovered. And there seems to be a basic principle here: giving thanks for what you do have increases your chances for even more! Blessed Be!
