Thanksgiving is a day when we take time out of our normal lives to be grateful for the things we have and for the people that are in our lives. Thanksgiving tradition is embedded in American History and is studied very closely by American students. In light of the recent economic crisis lately, as well as the mortgage business and the bank buyouts, many people have suffered financially and have had their lives change considerably. Giving thanks is especially important now because many peoples lives have changed for the worst over the course of the past year. We should all be appreciative for what we have and should spend this holiday with our loved ones.
