Here in the U.S. this Thursday we celebrate Thanksgiving Day.It is a day for most Americans who get together with their families and have turkey and a nice dinner.I still think that Thanksgiving Day is more important than Christmas itself.In Brazil,we don't traditionally celebrate and living here for almost 4 years you get to enjoy with family and relatives trying to cacth up with all of them,drink eggnog,have some wine,take pictures,watch tv together.I find fun and makes me think that we have to thank for everything we have.I don't mean things we own as a car or a house.Good grief.Have you ever thanked your close friends for being your close friends?I'll be trying this time.Living in America has made me change my feelings,my perspective of life,but not my personality.I cry here when bad things happen and things that we are not to blame such as the hurricanes and I thank God nothing much has happened to us here in Texas.Make a surprise.You don't need to call.Send a postcard($.23),leave a message on the phone,show how much you appreciate this person or those people you love.I am sure we should honor someone when he or she is alive.After all,when the person is dead is just history.
Happy Thanksgiving day and may God bless all of you.
