Happy Thanksgiving Day!
For our Canadian friends it has already past, but for those in the US Thanksgiving is tomorrow (Thursday 11/24/22).
Thanksgiving is a national holiday in the United States and is always celebrated on the fourth Thursday in November.
In Canada, Thanksgiving is celebrated on the second Monday in October.
Thanksgiving is an annual national holiday in both the United States and Canada where families gather and celebrates the blessings of the past year — and is a time for reflection.
How Did Thanksgiving Start
Colonists in both New England and Canada regularly observed “thanksgivings,” days to pray for such wonderful and bountiful blessings of safe journeys, military victories, and abundant harvests, and good health.
Americans emulate the holiday based on a 1621 harvest feast shared between the Wampanoag people and the English colonists known as Pilgrims.
Canadians trace their thanksgiving celebration back to 1578, when an expedition led by Martin Frobisher gave thanks for its safe passage.
How Is Thanksgiving Celebrated?
In both Canada and America, family and friends gather for large meals and other celebrations on Thanksgiving giving thanks for all their blessings of the past year.
Traditional feasts in America often includes turkey, cranberries, and pumpkin pie.
Parades and football games also have long been associations with Thanksgiving.
Gratitude
In the spirit of this season of gratitude, I would like to express my appreciation for all the help and guidance I have received from Kyle, Carson, the vast experts who have found success and unselfishly share that knowledge and of course this wonderful WA community who are helping me learn what it takes to build a sustainable online business and to be successful.
It's people like you all who let me know what I love to do every day.
Thank you for the part you play in my success and keeping me motivated in this wonderful journey here at The Wealthy Affiliate!
Thank you!
