The Culture We Need
To all our American friends Happy Thanksgiving! To all others, Happy Thanks giving too!. It is only now I realize that although I had posted these sentiments to friends I didn’t put them up on the website. I now share them with you, not on the day but in time for the weekend and still the Thanksgiving season.
Americans are today celebrating Thanksgiving and I thought that I would too. I watch how we have managed to import many of their cultural habits with music, dress and bling bling. Recently I’ve seen the increase in significance of Halloween here. Wow!
This cultural penetration can stick really deep, yet the one thing that is most admirable in their celebrations is ignored here, Thanksgiving. Even with the lost of its Christian roots, it is still very good to see the importance with which families value reunions and the opportunity to give thanks. I embrace this chance to give thanks too.

The Culture We Need Thanksgiving brings families near Hustling to be together to share Embraces and meals but mostly Coming together to express freely Uttermost thanks to God above Lots of thanks with lots of love This example should be copied by other countries Reproductions of people who every year Eagerly rush home cause their family will be there With gifts they will show up, with prayers and wishes Every pumpkin pudding, baked turkey and the casserole
dishes Nations will be well served to take a bite from this
plate Every country willing to imitate Emulate the family first attitude and harmonious living Do this and the whole world can be celebrating this
Thanksgiving |
