Happy Thanks-Living!
from Daily Boost — Motivation and Coaching · host Scott Smith
Happy Thanksgiving! These days, most folks don't remember what Thanksgiving is all about - other than big sales all over Amazon. The Pilgrims celebrated the first Thanksgiving after a successful harvest in October 1621. The feast lasted three days. The federal holiday began in 1863 when President Abraham Lincoln proclaimed a national day of "Thanksgiving." Thanksgiving is about being grateful. I think a statement from Stoic Philosopher Epictetus is fitting, "He is a wise man who does not grieve for the things which he has not, but rejoices for those which he has." Today and every day, let's make it "Thanks-Living" day. Eat well, nap, watch football, and embrace your family and friends. Joi and I are thankful that you allow us into your life.
