“Gratitude is an inward feeling of kindness received. Thankfulness is the natural impulse to express that feeling. Thanksgiving is following that impulse”.
Henry Van Dyke
In our farming past, Thanksgiving was a celebration of the end of the harvest and the start of the winter season.
Today it is a holiday where many people share a traditional turkey dinner and pumpkin pie with family and friends.
To me, it is a day to say thanks for everything I am and have, and all the wonderful people and animals in my life. I have abundant love and health and joy in my life, and the more I count my blessings, the more blessings I attract into my life.
I hope your Thanksgiving is extra special! Ann
