Gratitude. In less than two weeks, Americans will celebrate Thanksgiving, a holiday dedicated to gratitude, or giving thanks. It's important to express thanks to people in your life, and thanks for the blessings of your life. Let's face it, no one can live without help from someone, and we all have much to be thankful for. Who would you like to thank? What are you thankful for?
Gratitude is a word that involves many feelings. This type of word expresses how grateful you are for somebody’s action. In my case, I am thankful for a lot of things. One of the most important things is that I’m grateful for how lucky I’m too came to the US to study here and have a lot of opportunities. This wouldn’t be possible without my parents. That’s one of the reasons why I’m very thankful.

ReplyDeleteI want to thank my mom because if she was not here, I could never grow up like this and become more mature in life without her teaching me. Moreover, she also bought me food and made my dishes. She gives me a family and everything that a kid is supposed to have or might be more than that. I have everything and live a grateful life with my mom.

ReplyDeleteI am grateful to my parents for giving me the opportunity to study abroad. They opened up new opportunities for me, which many people do not have. I am also grateful to my close friends, who supported me morally and helped me in difficult times. I enjoy my life and I will do my best to live it with dignity. In our country we have no Thanksgiving, but there is a similar holiday called Nooruz. This holiday is celebrated in Kyrgyzstan on March 21, but other countries celebrate it on other dates. On this holiday it is customary to put your house in order, return all debts and ask for forgiveness from those whom you have offended. And at the end of the day to gather with the family and read prayers. This holiday is a Muslim holiday.But it is celebrated by all Kyrgyzstan, regardless of race and religion.

Ayla:
ReplyDeleteSo in Spain we don’t have thanksgiving so I’m not really used to this but if I had to thank someone, I’ll probably thank my parents, they have giving me the opportunity to study and the opportunity of being somebody. They could just not care but they do, they do care, and I’m thankful for that. Another person or thing that I’m thankful for is myself,and I know that it sound narcissistic but let me explain. I’m thankful for the choices that i made, I’m thankful that I’ve decided to continue and don’t give up, I’m thankful because I know I’m a good person, I’m thankful because people want me to be close to them, I’m thankful because I know I put a lot of effort into things.
Eric:
ReplyDeleteI want to say thank you to my mother. She always supports me whatever I want to do. When I want to do something then she buys something that I need and she finds some teacher who can make me do better. So, I feel grateful to my mother

ReplyDeleteI am grateful that I am healthy, that my family has always given me everything and I have never lacked anything I am grateful to life because I feel that I have been rewarded and I have been lucky but I believe that all people should be grateful for the simple fact of living to be able to breathe from such insignificant things that no one takes importance but that are important.
Since it's the end of the year I think it's good to say thank you to people as much as we could.
ReplyDeleteFirst of all I want to say thank you to my parents.
They always supported my decision, and they tried so hard to give me a great childhood experience.
I'm thankful to my parents for being the best father and mother. Also for the situation that we are having right now I want to say thank you to medical assistants for the services they gave us. Since covid happened they worked so hard for all of us. Well, the year is almost over so I want to say have a great day for everyone. Thanks

Santiago:
ReplyDeleteGratitude is a really important value because . It’s a value that shows respect and kindness . I think I a person that shows a lot of gratitude because I treat the people the way I want to be treated and I’m a person who really like to give . This value I learned on my house because that’s the way my parents teach me since I was really young . When I was a kid I didn’t understand how important gratitude was but one that pin gearing younger I’m starting reflex and realize how important it is.
Nick:
ReplyDeleteThis year I am thankful for lots of different things. Everything was going very well for me and I am just very happy. Honestly I am most thankful for my dad; he is the one that always motivates me and he is the one that came up with an idea to send me to Thornton academy to study. Second most important thing that I am thankful for , are my friends (from Poland and from here); they were always with me when I needed them and when I needed some support. All of those people (including my whole family) really helped me mentally this year, because even if it doesn’t look like it I sometimes get really down and I need some to talk to.

ReplyDeleteI am very grateful and happy for everything in my life, because I have had a wonderful experience in my life. Because I can realize how beautiful life is, this is for everyone. You will feel great and grateful, because your life has given you a happy story. But on the other hand, if your life tells an uncomfortable or sad story, you must smile and accept it to find a solution.
I am first thankful to God. I am grateful to my parents for being able to study with friends from various countries in such a good country, but I think I am most grateful to God. I am very grateful to my dad for always believing in me and following me. He gave me a lot of words that I could always encourage and encourage without getting angry. That's why I always say thank you to my father and mother.

ReplyDeleteI would like to thank my parents for giving me birth. Teach me how to be a good person, teach me how to live in this complicated world, teach me how to treat people with courtesy. Although they are not always supporting me, I’m still so thankful that they teach me so many things. When I feel depressed, they always give me the best suggestions. Therefore, I’m so thankful to them.
Vittorio:
ReplyDeleteI believe that people that want the best for you are the key to happiness. For this reason I have to thank my family first of all. I believe that family is the most important thing we have, and the people who love me the most in the world and would do anything for me are my family. I am very grateful to them for everything they have done for me and investing in me to come here to Maine is just one example. After family I thank all my friends who give me so much happiness. Without friends it is hard to find happiness. I also thank all the people who help me and believe in me.
