Everybody knows how the holidays always go throughout the year. Everybody has their favorite holiday that they love and can't wait till it comes along. But I have a question. Why is that whenever the month of October is over and done with, that we try to go straight for Christmas? I mean yeah Christmas is a great holiday and it does have a beautiful meaning behind it too. BUT, what about November? What about Thanksgiving? What about spending time with your family on that one Thursday throughout the year? What about that one time of year that we can all have a turkey and enjoy the warmth from being around family? I mean, doesn't that matter? I mean, don't we have time to enjoy our families anymore? Do we not want to see our family anymore? Only on Christmas? Are we not thankful anymore? Did we forget what being thankful was all about? I would like for somebody, anybody to give me an answer to a question that shouldn't even be asked. To a list of questions that shouldn't have ever been thought of. Well let me tell you something, I care, I still care about being thankful and Thanksgiving. I STILL CARE ABOUT THANKSGIVING PERIOD. Don't you? I do.
Thankful- aware and appreciative of a benefit; grateful
Thanksgiving- the expression of gratitude, especially to God.
November- the eleventh month of the year, in the northern hemisphere usually considered the last month of autumn.
Family- anygroupofpersonscloselyrelatedbyblood,asparents,children,uncles,aunts,andcousins.
You can't have November without Thanksgiving and you can't celebrate without being thankful or having your family. So what is the month of November to some? Just another time to go crazy at Black Friday sales? To not even show up or acknowledge the fact that there is something to be thankful for?
I always await November just like I wait for October and December. It's the turkey's time to shine. It's the time to give God the thanks for allowing loved ones to gather around the table and enjoy each other's company once again. Maybe I'm the only one and you know what? I don't care. I love Thanksgiving and I love giving thanks and I love my family. Because to me there is no Thanksgiving if you don't have loved ones to share it with. o start being grateful for these small moments with your family and don't ever count out November. We need November like we need the dates and times. Start appreciating everything special about Thanksgiving. don't forget Thanksgiving and November. It doesn't forget us, so we don't need to forget it.
