Aloha Promises Forever wishes each and everyone of its readers and their families and friends a very happy and blessed Thanksgiving 2024!!

How do you spend your Thanksgiving Day? For my family, we do our very best to always catch the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. This started when I was a small child and military dependent. We were living in the Philippines and I was maybe 3-4 years old is my earliest recollection of this. It has always been a time of feasting starting with a breakfast of cheeses, salami, pepperoni and treats like this as we watch the parade.

Many of you will spend the day catching up with friends and relatives and take in a football game. Others might be watching the annual dog show. But let’s all share at least one thing in common, please. Take a moment and think back on your year and maybe even today, and verbalize at least one thing that you are grateful for. Some of us have more to be grateful than others. But all of us have at least one thing that makes this a moment that we can thank God for, right? For me, the big one on my list are my two daughters who are sitting in the living room as I type this doing some homework. They are my blessings and I love them more than life. The youngest one even spent a moment teaching and sharing with my eldest and I some German vocabulary words that she was assigned to teach. I love how smart and wonderful my daughters are! Thank you Lord for each of them.

What about you folks out there? Care to share a bit of what makes your world all the more wonderful? We’d love to hear it!
