Thanksgiving, Such A Joyous Occasion

I feel that Thanksgiving is a very good holiday, for those who care for it anyways. Thanksgiving brings families together. It stops much fighting and feuds between family members and it makes families more thankful to what they have and own, even though the next day much fighting happens. Thanks to Thanksgiving it's brought many families together, and brought people to new foods and tastes.

Thanksgiving is a very old holiday, but is still practiced very much. It shows how two very different people can come together and come up over their differences and get together to have a beautiful feast. But some people don't realize how important this holiday is. Some people just think of this holiday as a day to eat a lot of food and socialize with family and friends. But in reality this holiday was about the fight for survival that the pilgrims had for food. But then, like a gift from heaven, a couple of Plymouth Indians gave food and shelter to these pilgrims

The pilgrims were very grateful for the empathy that the Indians had, but it wasn't until a while afterwards that this day became a holiday. This, Thanksgiving, was made an actual holiday by Abraham Lincoln, and it represented all that the people of the United States were grateful for.

So hopefully more people will respect the holiday of Thanksgiving. If they do appreciate this holiday more in depth than they will realize what's more important in their own lives, and what the early citizens of the United States went through. So we should be thankful to them, or else a lot of people wouldn't be here.
