So today is the designated day for us to celebrate Thanksgiving. For a lot of people today means football, the Macy's Parade, family and friends gathering together, and eating more food than we should have. It's a day where we show our thankfulness and gratitude. Just like you, there's so many things I have to be thankful for over this past year. What if for a moment we made some changes when it came to thanksgiving? What if we allowed the spirit of thanksgiving to be celebrated every single day. I don't mean the football, parade and food, but the attitude of giving thanks every day and not just on one day. I'm amazed how many things we should be thankful for on a daily basis. There are so many things we take for granted, just expecting it, and before long it's overlooked and there's no thankfulness shown or given for it. What if we chose to be thankful in everything? What if thanksgiving abounded more than our complaining? Can you picture a culture where people were truly thankful every day? It would be like none other. Today, enjoy your football, enjoy your parade, enjoy your family and friends, and enjoy your food. But most of all, be thankful, and not just today, but tomorrow and then the next day, and so on. We have so much to be thankful for! And don't just be thankful for what you have, but what you can do :)
