Today is America’s best celebration. Thanksgiving truly is for everyone. It is not part of any specific religious tradition; it is for all to enjoy. For this one day, we can cast aside worries about the future and focus only on the good things that have happened in our past.
I am thankful that I was born in a prosperous nation and have lived a long and generally pleasant life with the freedom to chart my own course. Through good and bad times, many people have supported and guided me. I appreciate all of them, especially Sandy, my beautiful wife.
I am thankful that my family does not want for food, shelter, or love. Today we will be together. That is the best thing of all.

I too like the fact that it's for all to enjoy ... without overtones of specific religions.
Wouldn't it be nice if we could give thanks every day?
Yes, little things mean a lot. How lovely to be with those we love, and have them in good health. Dianne
