do you know thanksgiving day? do you know why human thank god?

thanksgiving falls on the fourth thursday of november, a different date every year. the president must proclaim that date as the official celebration.

thanksgiving is a time for tradition and sharing. even if they live far away, family members gather for a reunion at the house of an older relative. all give thanks together for the good things that they have.

in this spirit of sharing, civic groups and charitable organizations offer a traditional meal to those in need, particularly the homeless. on most tables throughout the united states, foods eaten at the first thanksgiving have become traditional.
