Thanksgiving

The platitudes, many of which I express on the daily it would seem, perhaps get old for some people. “We have so much to be grateful for.” “Let’s always be thankful,” and so forth. However, the thing is - they are tried and everlasting adages because, well, they’re true! I do a gratitude journal entry every single day, and have for about ~10 years. I never run out of things to be grateful for. Today, with a real-feel of 18 degrees and blowing wind, it was a “warm home.” With my family together for the holiday, it was also “time with family.” With some sickness among people I know and love, it was also “my health and well-being.” The science on happiness backs this up. Make that one seminal element of Thanksgiving — expressing thanks for our blessings — a #365 day tradition.
