So it's Thanks Giving and while for most it means food and downing cases of redbull to survive door busters at the local shops on Friday, there is something more special with it. It's about taking thanks into what we have. Not just in possessions, money, success, but mostly in fellowship of those around us. It's about being with friends. Sharing those moments in life together that make it worth something. It shouldn't take a big meal and a fancy parade on TV to remind us of just how lucky we are to have those we love and care about in our lives.
To all those out there on this day, may it be filled with the love and friendship you can give thanks for every day.
PS: Todays menu for the local furry Thanks Giving sit down:
