Its almost Thanksgiving ..right about this time in the month of November,I would be telling my Ma "Why don't we just order dinner this year,it will be easier,you wont have to cook" and she would always say "I am not an old lady ,I can still cook" and every year she still cooked and insisted on being the one to do the cooking.

I know now that her spirit,is what keeps me feeling alive.She lived every moment until the last with that same stubborn enthusiasm,she cooked until the end.

I will always cook on Thanksgiving because of her,taking the easy way out seems well too easy.It is the struggles that keep us strong.
