Thanksgiving Thoughts

This is the season of gratitude and giving thanks, of showing and sharing love, and of resolving to do those things every day of the year not just at Thanksgiving.

Thank you being readers of SlingWords. Here are some words to inspire you and some to make you smile.

"Gratitude can transform common days into thanksgivings, turn routine jobs into joy, and change ordinary opportunities into blessings." —William Arthur Ward

"There is one day that is ours. Thanksgiving Day is the one day that is purely American." —O. Henry

"Thanksgiving dinners take eighteen hours to prepare. They are consumed in twelve minutes. Half-times take twelve minutes. This is not coincidence." —Erma Bombeck

"Thanksgiving is a time when the world gets to see just how blessed and how workable the Christian system is. The emphasis is not on giving or buying, but on being thankful and expressing that appreciation to God and to one another." —John Clayton

"An optimist is a person who starts a new diet on Thanksgiving Day." —Irv Kupcinet

"What I love about Thanksgiving is that it's purely about getting together with friends or family and enjoying food. It's really for everybody, and it doesn't matter where you're from." —Daniel Humm

TAKEAWAY TRUTH

"Thanksgiving is one of my favorite days of the year because it reminds us to give thanks and to count our blessings. Suddenly, so many things become so little when we realize how blessed and lucky we are." —Joyce Giraud
