Thanksgiving historically is a day recognized when the puritans at Plymouth celebrated a day of thanks for a good harvest. The day was primarily a religious day of Christian worship and fasting. But, as we all know today’s thanksgiving is centered on the meal and the gathering of family and friends.
How did the modern day thanksgiving shifted from its origin. I think it was probably a combination of commercialization (turkey industry) along with family members moving to other states, which results in one of the busiest travel days of the year.
I believe that today should be a day to give thanks for all the blessings in your life. A day to recognize some of the things we often take for granted.
