Make a Moment to Feel Joy This Thanksgiving
Don’t let the world steal your happiness
Our world is changing. There is a lot of fear. Take a breath.
It is hard to be brave when chaos, judgment, and misinformation exist everywhere.
It is not easy to watch whatever is stealing your joy day after day. So please don’t watch it on Thanksgiving Day.
Thanksgiving is an American holiday for reflecting on past successes. We are thankful for all the things that have happened to us, both negative and positive, to bring us to this point in our lives. We are still standing.
It is a day to be kind to yourself and those you invite around you. Don’t have people near you on this day who will steal your happiness — just don’t. You don’t need that negative energy near you.
Thanksgiving is a day to feel joy about yourself and your life. I am having family and friends over to eat delicious homemade food, drink fine wine and liquor, laugh heartily at ourselves, and play adult games.
My goal is for everyone to leave my home tired but refreshed. We will all have pleasant moments during the gathering and rejoice that we are celebrating together.
