Thanksgiving is a time for gathering with our family and friends to celebrate everything, large and small, that we are thankful for. This Thanksgiving, don't forget to remember all the things you are thankful for. Here are a few things you may not think about, but should remember this holiday season.
The Big Things:
Family, friends and pets are all typical things that we are thankful for, however sometimes we are guilty of not thanking these people (and animals) enough for everything they do for us. So this Thanksgiving, make sure to show your appreciation for the big things in your life.
The Little Things:
The things we don't think about. A roof over our heads. Food on the table. The opportunity to be educated. All of these things are important parts of daily life, so we sometimes forget how lucky we are to have these things. Think about these while celebrating Thanksgiving this year.
The Random Things:
On Thanksgiving, we should celebrate all the extras in our life. Important things celebrated at Thanksgiving, such as eating a ton of food, watching football and taking leisurely naps, are often at the bottom of the list of things we appreciate. However, we are so lucky to be fortunate enough to have televisions to watch football on and beds to take naps on, so we need to take the time to be grateful for the luxuries in life.
Everything Else:
The bottom line is, if you put your hand over your heart, you'll feel a heartbeat. A pulse. A purpose. Remember that the reason you are who you are today is because of the big and little things in your life. Remember to also be thankful for each and every day you wake up. Be grateful for the opportunity and resources to be exactly who you want to be, and the people and things that support you along the way.
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
