Thanksgiving Day

In the United States, the modern Thanksgiving holiday tradition is commonly, but not universally, traced to a poorly documented 1621 celebration at Plymouth in present- day Massachusetts. The 1621 Plymouth feast and thanksgiving was prompted by a good harvest. 

Thanksgiving Day is a national holiday celebrated primarily in the United States and Canada as a day of giving thanks for the blessing of the harvest and of the preceding year. Thanksgiving has its historical roots in religious and cultural traditions, and has long been celebrated in a secular manner as well.

Reflection of kindness:

I think that when you do something nice for someone without them asking for it is highly rewarded. You just think of it and say: Well, if i have 2 pairs of shoes and someone doesn't even have one, why cant i give a pair free to that person? Its about sharing to those who are in need and thinking that you are doing the correct thing. Rewards and good stuff come when you do it too.
