"Happy Thanksgiving" (Kala eukharistia!)
In the US today, we celebrate the Thanksgiving holiday. Canada celebrated their Thanksgiving holiday last month, so a belated Kαλά εὐχαριστία! to any Canadians stopping by here.
I think of Thanksgiving as the most Epicurean of the established holidays with its emphasis on:
- gratitude
- the gathering together of friends and family
- the enjoyment of food and drink on a special occasion
So, think on these things this holiday and be grateful for this life in which we get to experience all these in addition to having the opportunity to study and practice the philosophy of the Garden.
Carpe diem! Pluck the ripe fruit of the day!
