Giving Thanks is an Everyday Privilege

While America is about to indulge on turkey, stuffing, potatoes, pumpkin pie and all the yummy foods that come with Thanksgiving Dinner, I have to ask myself, why is it that Giving Thanks is boiled down into one day?  I am thankful everyday…thankful for God, my family, my health, my career…thankful for LIFE.  Most of us know how quickly life can be taken and how precious making every second count really is.  So on this eve of Thanksgiving, I ask all of you to not just be thankful tomorrow, but be thankful everyday…because life is precious, life is fruitful and life IS loving.  Treasure each day, every hug and smile you give and receive, and make the most out of this joyous life that God has given you.  Happy Thanksgiving to everyone and God bless you and your family.
