My family didn’t have many traditions for the Thanksgiving holiday, other than snoring loudly post-meal in various reclining chairs. But the one moment we always managed to make time for as we sat down around the table, just before we dug in, was when we would go around the table and each say something for which we were thankful. As a child this was mostly just embarrassing, but now as an adult I find myself understanding why we do it and even a bit appreciative of that moment. I spend all day running around doing so much stuff that I’m guessing it’s healthy to take some time from time to time to be thankful.
