Well, it’s November (collective marvel at how the year has flown by). Though some are understandably eager to jump into Christmas celebrations, it would be a loss to overlook the significance of Thanksgiving. Sure, there are no catchy carols and few seasonal movies. It doesn’t help that the history is muddied with mythology of colonization. And I’ve heard a rumor that there are some people who don’t even like turkey! But stick with me for a minute because Thanksgiving is a hidden treasure.
I usually get the point about serving others, and the need I have to be reminded, but I have also failed on the give to the giver part. Never actually thought about that. Perhaps some of us need Thanksgiving more than others?
Thank you Mal for slowing us down to read your words and giving us entry into a mindset of grateful thanks. Have a Blessed Thanksgiving.

Great letter!
