It is my favorite holiday. A day dedicated to gratitude and thanksgiving. What could be better than gratitude and love? Lots of people use it as an opportunity to overeat but I love having people over, cooking, celebrating and truly giving thanks for everything. I am so grateful I have a wonderful home, a great family, friends and each of you. Thanks for allowing me to be part of your life.<\/p>\n<p>As the holiday approached thought about what I wanted to give you. I finally decided I wanted to share a story from my book, The Toltec Way. It is about a village of people who learned the power of gratitude and love. At first I was just going to record it as an audio but then decided to make a video instead. I hope you enjoy it.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<iframe title=\"The Villagers Find Abundance\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/32592619?dnt=1&amp;app_id=122963\" width=\"320\" height=\"240\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture; clipboard-write\"><\/iframe>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.beliefnet.com\/angelsonyourshoulder\/2011\/06\/welcoming-the-angels-home.html\" target=\"_blank\">Calling the angels into your home<\/a><\/p>\n<p>With love and aloha,<br \/>\n<em><a href=\"http:\/\/susangregg.com\/\">Susan<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p>Angels are everywhere just open your mind and your heart to the signs.<\/p>\n<p>Make <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.beliefnet.com\/angelsonyourshoulder\/\">Angels on Your Shoulder<\/a> part of your daily routine and share it with a friend!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Aloha and Happy Thanksgiving, Here in the United States we celebrate Thanksgiving Day today.
