It's important to remember the things youre thankful for. Food, water, shelter. We take these things for granted and many of the people in the world do without. Make your holiday about thanks, not gluttony.

Yes, you’re right. That is how to make most of the day. And be together with family.
But survivor’s guilt is very real these days for me. Also knowing so many Americans are struggling to afford a Thanksgiving meal. This all just feels wrong.
Yeah its hard to reconcile the fact that life is fundamentally unfair. I hope you don't feel guilty that you happen to be lucky. You've done nothing wrong. I wish everyone in the world could have a life as good as the average American has. I hope you have a happy Thanksgiving.
