Don't know anything about it except that it's a pretty big deal for you fella's, so I hope you all have a wonderful day with family and rejoice together.
Hi Jim, Thanksgiving is considered one of America's most important holidays because it's a time for family, friends, and community to gather and express gratitude for the year's blessings. Celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November, the holiday's focus is on a shared feast, reflecting on thankfulness, and often includes traditions like watching parades, football, and beginning the gift-giving season.
  • Focus on gratitude: The core of Thanksgiving is a national and personal reset, centered on being thankful for the year's blessings, which can include home, loved ones, and community.
  • Family and friends: It is a major holiday for family reunions, where people come together to share a traditional feast and enjoy each other's company.
  • Shared traditions: The day involves common activities such as the large meal, watching televised parades and football games, and preparing for the holiday season ahead. 3.5 million people attended (in person) the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade!
  • Another 31 million watched it on TV.
  • Community and connection: Thanksgiving can be seen as a time to set aside everyday disagreements and focus on common bonds, fostering a sense of unity and patriotism.
