Let the Giving of Thanks Begin!!
Earlier today I was on Twitter and I saw a tweet that said something like “We are all eating the same thing this week end, no need to post every turkey dinner meal!” I’ll admit it, I laughed and liked and scrolled on. Then I got to thinking about it. Why rain on someone’s parade? Why take the joy out of a holiday? Let’s embrace the joy, the turkey, the love.
So in response, I tweeted,
“Dear Twitter friends: feel free to post all the pictures of your Thanksgiving feasts, leaf throwing photos and children/pets playing in the leaves. Weather pics. You can even tag me!! This is Thanksgiving. A time to give thanks for all we have and all that gives us joy. 🦃 🍁 🍂”
And I mean it!! If ever there was a celebration for acknowledging your blessings and enjoying the fruits of your labour, this is it!! Thanksgiving is all about rejoicing in all the hard work that was done in the growing and harvesting and now we can reap the rewards.
So take all the pictures of your food!! Having pumpkin pie, turkey or ham? Show it off!! Watching football this weekend? Go Team!! So go ahead and take those cliched picture last of throwing leaves in the air. Just the other day I saw a picture of a dog sitting on a pile of leaves. And I loved it!! Surrounded by family and friends? Share the goodness and love!! Give thanks! Happy Thanksgiving!!
Our early start to the Thanksgiving Weekend: beef stew and dumplings!
