A Thanksgiving meditation urging gratitude born from hardship. It contrasts rich luxury with poverty and stresses strength, courage, and steadfast character as true thanks. It notes America’s burden and the war’s impact, urging disciplined, sober outlook and resilience.
A terse, pithy line about life being a deadly earnest path defined by destiny, not trivial pastime, urging resolve in pursuing unseen goals.
A poetic Thanksgiving prayer asking for peace at home and abroad. It thanks Thee for blessings and urges generosity to the needy, healing the wounded, comforting the grieving, and sharing abundance with those in want.
The article argues Thanksgiving is not uniquely American, noting ancient celebrations in Greece, Rome, Egypt, and various tribes. It describes harvest feasts and related rustic activities as common across cultures, implying long-standing human tradition rather than a modern American invention.
A brief quotation extols cultivating gratitude as a perpetual feast. It asserts there are no small mercies, only great ones, and a truly thankful heart finds motive for gratitude in everything. The note attributes the saying to J. Ke. Macduit.
