So lets talk about Thanksgiving .....
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thanksgiving
- A national holiday celebrated on different dates, in different countries around the world.
- A day giving thanks and sacrifice for the blessing of the harvest and of the preceding year.
- Its roots are in religious and cultural traditions but has long been celebrated as a secular holiday.
I remember even hearing of Korea's Harvest moon festival in October/ Nov - Chuseok.
Isn't this wonderful? All around the world different cultures and nations celebrate what the land has given us? I feel like this should coincide with Earth day even. Thank you land and thank you planet!
I realize this is depicted in many countries very differently and I think it is evolving in different ways.
Either way, like any gathering, I feel like we all tend to celebrate and give thanks for many things in our lives : friends, family and even the earth and what it gives us and whom we feel looks over us all.
So much to be thankful for, even if this Thanksgiving is a bit more difficult than before.
