Thanksgiving Gratitude

In the years past I can honestly say that I have always enjoyed a traditional Thanksgiving, complete with all of the trimmings. Simple and plain. But always spectacular and so delicious. So many things to think about on this special celebration of a bountiful harvest. A turkey, candied yams, dressing, biscuits, cranberries, gravy, all topped off with a piece of pumpkin pie with a large dollop of freshly whipped cream. Ah, one of the best days of the year! Always held on the fourth thursday in the month of November. A day for a parade, football game and the start of the holiday season, but most importantly a day to think of peace, charity, being grateful for those in our families and friends. And the less fortunate....... A day to be humble, a day to share, making sure that everyone has enough to eat, and a warm place to sleep. It isn't always possible, but we can make a difference. To me I'm grateful each and everyday. Gratitude stays with us and is so very important all through our lives. A good quality, simple, but ever so good.
