Thanksgiving doesn’t have all the bells and whistles of Christmas, nor the party atmosphere of Halloween, and the symbolic turkey will never be as cute as the Easter Bunny. Still, somewhere along the way Thanksgiving has become my favorite holiday.
While the concept and meaning of some holidays can at times get lost in the anxiety of buying and getting, Thanksgiving has withstood the barrage of commercialism and held onto it’s core ideal. There’s a simple pleasure in Thanksgiving of preparing food for family and friends, and sharing that food over good conversation. It’s these simple pleasures of Thanksgiving which provide us with our most timeless of holidays.

Thanksgiving is a wonderful holiday that can be shared by everyone. I like giving thanks for all my blessings with the ones I love and who are special to me.
Happy Thanksgiving! *HUGS*
