For hearts that are kindly, with virtue and peace, and not seeking blindly a hoard to increase; for those who are grieving o'er life's sordid plan; for souls still believing in heaven and man; 
for homes that are lowly with love at the board; 
for things that are holy, I thank thee, O Lord! 
Walt Mason


Bad Joke Monday
What we're really talking about is a wonderful day set aside on the 
fourth Thursday of November when no one diets.  
I mean, why else would they call it Thanksgiving?  Erma Bombeck 

May your stuffing be tasty, May your turkey be plump, 
May your potatoes and gravy Have nary a lump.
May your yams be delicious And your pies take the prize, 
And may your Thanksgiving dinner Stay off of your thighs!

Thanksgiving dinners take eighteen hours to prepare.  
They are consumed in twelve minutes.  
Half-times take twelve minutes.  
This is not coincidence.  Erma Bombeck

Thoughts While Waiting For Thanksgiving

As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them.  John Fitzgerald Kennedy

Remember God's bounty in the year.  String the pearls of His favor.  
Hide the dark parts, except so far as they are breaking out in light!  
Give this one day to thanks, to joy, to gratitude!  Henry Ward Beecher

Thanksgiving Day comes, by statute, once a year; to the honest man 
it comes as frequently as the heart of gratitude will allowEdward Sandford Martin

Our rural ancestors, with little blest,
Patient of labour when the end was rest,
Indulged the day that housed their annual grain,
With feasts, and off'rings, and a thankful strain.   Alexander Pope

Thanksgiving-day, I fear, If one the solemn truth must touch,
Is celebrated, not so much To thank the Lord for blessing o'er,
As for the sake of getting more! Will Carleton

     The Final Word From Treebranch
There is one day that is ours.  There is one day when all we Americans who are not self-made go back to the old home to eat saleratus biscuits and marvel how much nearer to the porch the old pump looks than it used to.  Thanksgiving Day is the one day that is purely American.  O. Henry

Let us remember that, as much has been given us, much will be expected from us, and that true homage comes from the heart as well as from the lips, and shows itself in deeds.  Theodore Roosevelt

Thanksgiving is the holiday of peace, the celebration of work and the simple life... a true folk-festival that speaks the poetry of the turn of the seasons, the beauty of seedtime and harvest, the ripe product of the year - and the deep, deep connection of all these things with God.  Ray Stannard Baker

Heap high the board with plenteous cheer and gather to the feast,
And toast the sturdy Pilgrim band whose courage never ceased. Alice W. Brotherton

On Thanksgiving Day we acknowledge our dependence.  William Jennings Bryan

It is literally true, as the thankless say, that they have nothing to be thankful for.  He who sits by the fire, thankless for the fire, is just as if he had no fire.  Nothing is possessed save in appreciation, of which thankfulness is the indispensable ingredient.  But a thankful heart hath a continual feast.  W. J. Cameron
