We begin the holiday season with a day where we celebrate gratitude for the abundance of gifts in our lives, large and small, visible and invisible. Gratitude expressed daily and genuinely can uplift us, make a difference for others and help change the world.

Take time to tell someone in your life you appreciate them. The practice of grateful living is a way of life which asks us to notice all that is present and abundant and in doing so take nothing for granted. Practice small, grateful acts every day.

Take some time to learn about our true history. Inaccurate historical accounts of Native Americans can perpetuate ongoing harm and racism when left unaddressed. Let us celebrate, give thanks, honor the land, and cultivate inclusiveness, every day.

With much gratitude,
