gratitude.

 Isn't it funny that people skip over thanksgiving like it's a speed bump.
I think thanksgiving is a signal for a lot of things.
- When you can start listening to Christmas music.
- Christmas Decorations.
- Christmas shopping.
- Official goodbye to fall.
The list goes on and on....
Really thanksgiving should and does have a real purpose.
Which is completely obvious.
But often ignored.
Thinking of what your grateful for and expressing it are two totally different things.
I feel guilty sometimes about not being grateful enough.
We know what we have and why we have it.
But we don't express it to the people we are grateful to and more importantly in our prayers.
Maybe, you aren't a religous person, but being grateful has so much more meaning than that.
This video has inspired me this thanksgiving:
Please watch it all it's wonderful!

"... let us give thanks for what we are, and for the circumstances god has given us for our personal journey through mortality."

Please, feel free to add to your thanksgiving post.
