The Pilgrims made seven times more graves than huts. No Americans have been more impoverished than these who, nevertheless, set aside a day of thanksgiving. If the only prayer you said in your whole life was, “many thanks,” that would suffice. Day is a jewel Thanksgiving, to create in the hearts of honest men; but be cautious that you don’t take the day, and omit the gratitude. In thankfulness of center.
As we express our gratitude, we must forget that the best gratitude is not to utter words never, but to live by them. Remember God’s bounty in the entire year. String the pearls of His favour. Hide the dark parts, except so as they may be breaking out in light considerably! Day to thanks Give this one, to joy, to gratitude! Thanksgiving Day comes, by statute, a year once; to the honest man it comes as frequently as the heart of gratitude will allow.
With feasts, and off’rings, and a thankful stress. What we’re really talking about is an excellent day reserve on the fourth Thursday of November when nobody diets. I mean, why else would they call it Thanksgiving? Thanksgiving, in the end, is a expressed phrase of action. Comes from the heart.
Thanksgiving was never designed to be shut up in one day. For everything Thy goodness transmits. Thanksgiving dinners take eighteen hours to prepare. They are consumed in twelve minutes. Half-times take twelve minutes. This is not coincidence. Father in heaven, we say thanks to Thee! Day An optimist is somebody who begins a new diet on Thanksgiving.
But such a center whose pulse may be Thy compliment. Sae let the Lord be thankit. It has been an unchallengeable American doctrine that cranberry sauce, a pink goo with overtones of sugared tomatoes, is a delectable requirement of the Thanksgiving panel and that turkey is uneatable without it. As well as the worn matron smiles where the young lady smiled before.
What moistens the lips and what brightens the eye? What calls back the past, like the rich pumpkin pie? Thanksgiving comes to us from the prehistoric dimness, common to all age groups and all faiths. At whatever straws we must grasp, there’s always a time for gratitude and new origins. There is one day that is ours. There is 1 day when all we Americans who are not self-made get back to the old home to eat saleratus biscuits and marvel how much nearer to the porch the old pump looks than it used to. Day is the main one day that is purely American Thanksgiving.
Let us remember that, as much has been given us, much will be expected from us, which true homage comes from the heart as well as from the lips, and shows itself in deeds. We can only be said to be alive in those brief moments when our hearts are conscious of our treasures.

And toast the sturdy Pilgrim band whose courage never ceased. Day On Thanksgiving, all over America, families sit down to dinner at the same moment – halftime. On Thanksgiving Day we recognize our dependence. It is literally true, as the thankless say, they have nothing to be thankful for. He who rests by the fireplace, thankless for the fireplace, is really as if he previously no open fire just. Nothing is possessed save in appreciation, which thankfulness is the indispensable ingredient. But a thankful heart hath a continual feast. Ten for one Twice. Thanksgiving is America’s national chow-down feast, the one occasion every year when gluttony becomes a patriotic duty.
The heart will see the pathway home. Grace is not a little prayer you chant before receiving meals. It’s ways to live. Give thanks a lot for unknown blessings on their way already. To speak gratitude is courteous and pleasant, to enact gratitude is generous and noble, but to live gratitude is to touch Heaven.
