“I truly believe we can either see the connections, celebrate them, and express gratitude for our blessings, or we can see life as a string of coincidences that have no meaning or connection. For me, I'm going to believe in miracles, celebrate life, rejoice in the views of eternity, and hope my choices will create a positive ripple effect in the lives of others. This is my choice.”
– Mike Ericksen

It's Thanksgiving eve in the US! The turkey is thawing in the fridge, the sweet potatoes are awaiting their marshmallow glaze, and the early shoppers are donning their cold-weather-standing-in-line-gear. But more important than the giant birds and the sugary tubers and the 52" flatscreen DLP is (wait for it...) the spirit of thankfulness we feel when we get to spend time with our friends and loved ones!
So why not use this dispatch to share the things we're grateful for and explore what it means when we talk about gratitude?

Miracles of happenstance (plus turkeys)
We here at &yet are constantly grateful for the people we get to work side-by-side with—so many interesting people with diverse talents and stories represented on our team. It's quite easy to overlook the chance meetings that shape our lives. At &yet, we love Thanksgiving because it gives us a rare, unified, moment to reflect on how grateful we all are for the miracles of happenstance that brought us together. Your friend and mine, Adam Brault, shares his own reflection in this post. Here's to your own! And Happy Thanksgiving.
