When I was a little child, my mothers and fathers defined to me the which means of Thanksgivingl. We do it to value the gifts of this globe, to value our blessings and give many thanks for them. When the Plymouth Rock Pilgrims gave thanks following living a year in the new world, they gave thanks to the Lord for their lives, for the harvest that would get them through the winter season, and for the people they cherished who helped them. Even although I'm not at danger for starvation like the initial people to rejoice American Thanksgiving, I still have my blessings to rely.
