Thanks to whom?

Definition of thank
"to tell (someone) that you are grateful for something that he or she has done or given
to express gratitude to —used in the phrase thank you usually without a subject to politely express gratitude " Merriman Webster

So this Thanksgiving Day, who are you thanking? Is it an appreciation expressed to someone or just a self-congratulations at how successful you have been able to navigate this world for as long as possible?

I am thanking those who have made the ride on this rock more fun!

I am grateful for the length of that list.

The origin certainly is thanking a deity.

That said, it never hurts to sit back a moment and look at your situation. By default life sucks and is complicated. So, if you find yourself healthy and in a positive situation, it is good to reflect on that and appreciate it. That's what I am usually doing around the holidays.

Cheers,

G

This video clip from Talladega Nights embodies the spirit of thanksgiving.

I guess you are implying that George Washington was a naive wacko?
