Today is Thanksgiving Day

 We know it's common sense; being thankful should be an everyday thing. Start by saying we do not even need to remind ourselves of the reasons why establishing comparisons is not generally a good idea: It exposes us to becoming arrogant and entitled. Just be thankful. If you can find a good, solid reason for which to be specifically thankful is even better. 

Now, we must remember this day is not only of spiritual gratitude related to God as our provider; it's also directed at being thankful to other people who have extended a helping hand to us, those who have welcomed us and helped us in times of need. I have had, and my family has had, many instances in our lives when others have come to our help in difficult times. To these people, each one of them, to the ones I knew in person, and also to the ones I never knew but were behind actions that played in my favor, I am thankful and grateful for being the recipient of your disinterested kindness.
