\nDay 31: How will you celebrate your gratitude tomorrow? Is it a long tradition or a new idea?<\/strong>
\nWhen I launched the Month of Thanksgiving<\/a>, my motive was that although we have an annual tradition of a holiday focused on giving thanks, many of us give cursory gratitude but focus on the food, football or family drama.
\nI have spent this month\u00a0focusing on\u00a0all the reasons I have to be grateful as a way to really enter the holiday mindful of my blessings and prepared for true, meaningful thanksgiving.
\nWhat does that mean when the actual holiday arrives?

I plan to do a posterboard gratitude tree, but one blogger I found hangs her thanks on an evergreen. Click here to read her take.<\/figcaption><\/figure>
\nFortunately, I have indulgent hosts for Thanksgiving dinner. We have a tradition in New York of dining with a group of friends who stay put, rather than traveling to be with their families, and our hosts agreed to let me bring a little of the Month of Thanksgiving to dinner. So I plan to borrow an idea I found online — the gratitude tree.
\nHere’s the way it’s described on one Web site<\/a>:<\/p>\n

A gratitude tree is simply a large tree with a broad base and many branches containing colorful leaves. Each leaf has room enough to contain a short written blessing. This tree can be placed on a piece of posterboard and prominently displayed for all to see and share as family members and friends write down things in their life that they are grateful for.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

On one blog I read this month, the author said she has has Thanksgiving tradition of writing one heartfelt letter of thanks and mailing it — and that she’s often been delighted by the response she gets.
\nWhat will you do on Thanksgiving to celebrate your gratitude? Is it a long-standing tradition or are you trying something new this year?<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
