Gratitude and Thanksgiving
Are sentiments and gestures that crosses cultures, religions and
connect our hearts.
I have yet to meet at culture who does not share a similar tradition to our Thanksgiving. In other countries they may celebrate at a different time of year and eat different foods, but the sentiment is the same.
To me, Thanksgiving is the most special holiday; free from religion, it's the most unifying.
As we commune together we see how much we are a like. Our prayers may sound different, but as we gather to give thanks; there is a togetherness that goes beyond religion.
If you have the custom of going around the table to share what you are grateful for; give reverence for the moment someone is sharing perhaps the deepest part of him or herself.
May your Thanksgiving also be filled with Love and Kindness - towards yourself and others.
