With today’s dreary economy, it is sometimes hard to remember what we are thankful for. However, the holidays are right around the corner. The holidays are a time to get together with friends and loved ones to show our appreciation. This means it is a great time to sit down and write what and/or who we are thankful for.
Do you remember making paper hand turkeys when you were in elementary school? Everyone traced their hand and made the silhouette of a turkey. Then on each feather, we wrote who or what we were thankful for.
It may seem like a silly exercise, especially for those who are not in elementary school. In my opinion, however, this simple exercise of writing down what we are thankful for is a nice reminder of what really matters in life. It makes us think in depth and helps us realize what is really important in our lives.
So this Thanksgiving, if you have a few extra minutes, I believe this could be a fun and rewarding exercise to do with your family. Even if you are too busy to write it down on paper, I ask that you at least think about what or who you are thankful for this holiday season.
