A Thanksgiving Wish

In this morning's mail was a Thanksgiving card from Marlena, a sweet lady in our community who cares about the hungry.

I was sitting in my living room looking out the door when I seen a man walking the alley. He would stop at each dumpster along his way and see if there was something he could sell for money. But what broke my heart was when he emptied a trash bag and put something in his mouth.

I went to the kitchen and fixed up a plate. I walked up to him and said, "Here, I want you to have this." He said, "Thank you" and went on his way.

I hope and pray that one day NOBODY will have to go hungry.

The note on the card read "May this Thanksgiving bring you a harvest of happiness!"
