Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday!!! It is the one day of the year that most families get together and enjoy each others company..........I said "most" I understand that not all families are that way. I also understand that most people think about Christmas in the same way. I am one of those, but more times than not Christmas is unfortunately more about the presents than the reason we celebrate the holiday. Don't get me wrong, I too get caught up in the presents myself. For those of you that know me, when it comes to a present I act like a 2 year old. I digress. That is entirely different post.
Back to the matter at hand........the only problem is most people are only "thankful" for friends, family and things they have been blessed with on the day of Thanksgiving. Why can't we all be thankful on a daily basis?? If you are thankful on a daily basis, then you are living right and commend you. I know it is definitely hard for me to do sometimes.......if not most of time. I guess this really came to my attention when doing a little Facebook surfing over the holiday weekend, I love a good Facebook stalking session. Most all of the status updates on Thanksgiving were how thankful one was on this day............again I said "most". However, on most other days of the year a status update is normally some random thought, telling us what they are doing or most commonly a complaint. I am not excluding myself from this group (Facebook status update, yes, but being not being thankful everyday, no). However, I am trying to turn over a new leaf and be a little more appreciative and thankful for the blessings in my life.
Again, I digress.
