Thanksgiving has always been my favorite holiday. Regardless of your beliefs or background, feeling and expressing gratitude is a sacred act. It opens the heart, humbles, and connects.
This week, as always, I acknowledge the fraught historical context of this contemporary American observance. People fleeing religious persecution in Europe only survived their first seasons in North America because of the generosity of the indigenous. Today, we hold space for all the lives, cultures, and traditions that were nearly erased.
I hope we will learn to tread gently on this storied land, love each other fully, and practice generosity and gratitude moving forward.
With love to you all,
