Gratitude is good for your health, and the health of those around you. Yesterday was Veteran's Day, aka Armistice Day, the day we pause to thank those who committed to fighting to keep our country safe.
Thanksgiving is on the last Thursday of November, this year the 24th. On this day, we gather to eat and celebrate the many things we have to be grateful for.
Between now and then, I am giving myself the gift of gratitude, and posting about practicing gratitude, and things to be be grateful for.
Thanksgiving Day has so many special aspects that highlight how much we have to be grateful for. You get to pick your focus- family, friends, football, feast, foliage and so much more. It is easy to get swept up in the planning, or to feel sadness if something from the past is no more- Taking a few moments to get quiet, and focus on what is going right can turn that around.
