<p>This is what this holiday should be about, not the Black Friday sales, nor the fact that European settlers destroyed the Native Americans way of life.</p>
<p>It can be difficult to find something to be thankful for when your life is in turmoil, or you don&#8217;t have enough to eat, or a place to sleep. Please remember those less fortunate than yourself, and do what you can for them.</p>
