Why not make this the Coolest Thanksgiving Ever?
We all can remember back to Thanksgiving Days past. Perhaps it is the smell of a turkey and pumpkin pie cooking, or the gathering together of family and friends. Maybe it was the road trip to Grandma’s house, or even perhaps the all-day parades and football. Whatever the memories are for you that reality is that those times play an important part in the forming of who you are and in who you have come to be.
Holidays make an excellent time to “make memories” for you and your family. President Thomas Jefferson thought the concept of Thanksgiving was “the most ridiculous idea I’ve ever heard.” Kind of makes you wonder what some of his memories were of family gatherings!
Take the time to remember some of those old family traditions, so that you can honor the past in your life. Take time to enjoy the present, so that you do not wish your life away. And then, take time to make future memories, so that, should the Lord tarry, your children will still have a reason to get together and reminisce.
Whatever you do, why not make this holiday the Coolest Thanksgiving Day ever?
