To eat three Thanksgiving dinners, not one, not two, but three!!! Is this manna falling from the sky? To not have to do any cooking or cleaning, or any preparation, no shopping?
Turkeys that are sacrificed for our taste buds, perfect species, a bird whose life and death is for you, s/he died to save us from our sins. A bird whose body is to be fattened up so we can eat his/her juicy meat in ceremony like the Pilgrims before us, what are we thankful about?
To be thankful to receive three turkey dinners, and to eat the best of foods, no indigestion, no heartburn, no sick stomach feelings, a tummy that is full and sated, a stomach that is churning like that full of butter, churning cottage cheese, not to need Tum's, a sated belly.
Yes, on Thanksgiving we can be thankful for our foods, and thankful to our cooks.
To then shine with the halo of an Angel after a good meal, and to invite others to try on a halo so to love the turkey and all we have and all we will get.
To be thankful for a future of happiness because we have this eternal love, a love we learned when we were inside our Mother's womb, and throughout our childhood, as she and your Father loved you, now you are able to love others too.
