As I think back on some of myhappiest moments, it is always thesimple times surrounded by family,friends and food that come tomind. Thanksgiving has alwaysresonated with these specialmoments, which makes it one of myfavorite times of year. Thisextraordinary day is not cloudedby consumerism, rather it isspecifically reserved to spend timewith those you rarely cherish likeyou should. So although thetradition of Thanksgiving revolvesaround the celebration of food,what makes it unique is that itallows each of us to take time toappreciate those people in ourlives that we are grateful for andlove the most. So make sure yougive thanks to those significantpeople in your life not only onThanksgiving but everyday!
