The importance of Thanksgiving Holidays in my opinion are times for families who are spread across the United States and those around the world to come together and share laughs‚ memories‚ and stories. One of the most important and my favorite holiday is Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving in my family is a time for love‚ giving thanks‚ and simple joy of being with family. It is a time to give thanks for all the things you’ve been blessed with from family right down to the shoes on your feet.
