Thanksgiving or Thanksgiving Day, currently celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November, has been an annual tradition in the United States since 1863. Thanksgiving is historically a religious observance to give thanks to God. Traditionally, it has been a time to give thanks for a bountiful harvest. While it may have been religious in origin, Thanksgiving is now primarily identified as a secular holiday. HOW SAD!
I, for one, could not enjoy the festivities tomorrow if I did not stop to ponder on all I have to be thankful for. While 2010 has not been like any other year in my life, I cannot help but reflect on all that God has done these past 8 months. "Thank you" seems so in adequate.
This week is a chemo week (pill) for me. I also have an Avastin treatment later this morning. So far, so good.
Looking forward to being with family this week. All the good food won't be so bad either...:-)
Take time to reflect on all the blessings in your life.
P.S. Happy Birthday to my father-in-law TODAY!
