Thankful

My annual critique of Black Friday is already published 😏 

But I am publishing again today, because I found a story too good to ignore. 

Olga was an exchange student from Eastern Europe when she experienced her first American Thanksgiving in Texas. She was in the "honeymoon" phase of getting to know a culture that she eventually embraced for herself as an immigrant.

Through all the ups and downs of various life stages over the last decade and a half, one constant in my life has been Thanksgiving. Without exception, every year that I have lived here [in the U.S.], someone has always invited me over for a Thanksgiving meal. Someone has always welcomed me at their table.
