Also a big hug to my American friends who are celebrating Thanksgiving today. I send a prayer for your country to be unified and healed soon. And with COVID-19, this has been a rough year for everyone. I really miss traveling, but, I’m very grateful for the Internet that connects us. This is my additional gratitude message for you all:
Around the world, let us embrace our humanness and appreciate our unique cultures. Let’s reach out with respect to connect with others who share our humanity. And with deep gratitude, may we all cherish the Earth that sustains and cradles us.
Gratitude is an opening of the heart; it connects us to the Light. Be of the Light, and do every thing you can, from the smallest gesture to the grandest, to spread your light. Our world sorely needs every candle in the window right now, as we find our way towards the better humanity that we can be. I know we can get there together!

~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

Dear Brothers Campfire, I was astounded to realize I was achieving that kind of reach. Some are showing up through sharing or search engines. Apparently there are 190+ countries in the world, so I have a ways to go to reach all of them. 😉 Thank you for reading. ~Susan

Okay, I just had to look. Population of about 57,000 people, territory of Denmark, inhabitants speak Greenlandic, an Eskimo–Aleut language. So, highly unlikely. But I will let you know if it happens. Lol Thanks, I learned something today and you made me laugh.

Ha ha! I have researched and tried it with no success as yet. I will tell you that if you use a string of Chinese characters from google translate and put them on your post you will get at least one hit from Taiwan and China. I think they have a bot that looks for them.
North Korea has eluded me though!
