Thanksgiving Day in America is a time to offer thanks and to gather with our families. It’s a time of turkeys, stuffing, and pumpkin pie. We should think of all that we have, whether large or small, tangible or intangible, and be grateful for those things; and above all, remember to be thankful not just once a year, but each and every day.
