Give Thanks

Thanksgiving is a national holiday celebrated in many countries, such as Australia, Canada, Grenada, Philippines and the United States.  It is a day in which many people celebrate and give thanks for their food, friends and family.  While there are many ways to celebrate the holiday, many people think it's something you should do everyday, I think it gives people an opportunity to be with loved ones and eat good food.  It is a holiday you can choose to be with your immediate family, your extended family, friends or by yourself.  Honestly, I don't subscribe to the idea of having to spend Thanksgiving with people I don't necessarily like or only speak to this time of year.  If I'm going to Give Thanks I want to do it with people that I care about and I am genuinely thankful to have in my life.  The way I see it, if I try to avoid you or limit my time with you on my day-to-day life then, I don't need to spend another day being around you.  I have a choice.

Now that Thanksgiving is over and have time to relax, how did you spend the day/weekend?  Did you cook any food?  Or did go out to eat?  Did you spend time with the people you wanted to?  Overall, I hope you had a good day and tried to have a relaxing weekend.
