Thanksgiving, we all have something we can be thankful for

 Thanksgiving, we all have something we can be thankful for Thanksgiving is a simple reflection on what we have and what we can be thankful for, whether in a spiritual or material context.

Thanksgiving Day is celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November, so there is no set date for it. The celebration does not have a religious meaning, but rather has more to do with union, gratitude and meeting with family and friends.


The famous turkey is the center of the Thanksgiving table, surrounded by other dishes, such as stuffing, mashed potatoes and other specialties. Volunteering is a very common practice during the Thanksgiving season, when communities come together and help the less fortunate.
