I got another "personal" message from Donny Osmond at Donny.com today, and boy was I excited to see that he's thinking about me during the holidays:

From my family to your family, we would like to send our warmest wishes and greetings to you during this Thanksgiving Holiday. In a world that has so much tension right now it's all the more important to keep a safe haven in our homes for us to feel safe and secure. At this time of year it causes all of us to reflect on what is really important and that is our family and friends; those we love.

My Mother and Father were always so positive and uplifting, and whether our holiday was spent in a hotel room, a tour bus, or at home, we always felt the security and love of our family. Thanksgiving is a time to reflect on what we are thankful for. It has been said that "an ungrateful person is like a hog under a tree eating acorns, but never looking up to see where they come from." As we look around our homes or wherever you may be this holiday season, let's try to be thankful for the little things; the small acts of kindness from others.

Too many times only the big things get recognized as worthy of a thank you. Gratitude begins with attitude. While to some every apple shines, to others the remaining blemishes after the polishing process are all that's visible. I hope that we can all look over the blemishes and enjoy the warmth and love of this holiday season. Work to make your homes a haven and place for your children, grandchildren, or loved ones to feel they can come home and be loved unconditionally. Say those three important words "I love you" to those you love.

I wish you all the joy and happiness for this Holiday Season.
