It’s that time of year folks! On November 22, 2018, is the day we celebrate Thanksgiving! The time of year where we can sit around the dinner table and gobble down a plate full of delectable foods.

Thanksgiving may be all about the yummy foods but it’s more than that. Thanksgiving is considered the time where we can settle down and think about the things, we are grateful for.

If you are having trouble thinking up what to be grateful for, here are a few suggestions for you to think about:

1. 1.Families!!! (you can NOT forget about them)

2. 2.Having shelter to live in

3. 3.Being able to wear clothes to keep us warm (and appropriate)

4. 4.Food (a need in our lives)

5. 5.Friends so we won’t be lonely

6. 6.Pets (They are people too you know)

7. 7.Education (Keeps us smart)

8. 8.Technology

9. 9.Wi-Fi (What would we do with it right?)

10. 10.Netflix (Without Netflix, how will we binge watch " To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before”?)

11. 11.Memes for us to relate too

12. 12.Having kind people around us

13. 13.Having good health

14. 14.Being able to live in a modern generation (Do you REALLY want to live like a pilgrim?)

As you can see there are many things to be grateful for. The world may be in shambles but that does not mean we are also. Being grateful can help us see the positivity and the beauty all around us instead of darkness and sadness.

Being grateful does not mean to celebrate it for one day. Every day we should think about what we are thankful for. We should also say thank you to all the people in our lives every day and not take their goodness for granted.

So, let us rejoice in gratitude and thankfulness this upcoming week and celebrate the day where everyone can give thanks. Make sure to tell your loved ones thank you and make sure to eat up all the turkey.

Have a good Thanksgiving!!!
