For years I ignored thanksgiving, thinking that being in Israel I have enough holidays to celebrate.  But in recent years I see more and more how delicate existence is, and how we shouldn’t miss a chance to say thank you – to the Lord (why take a chance), to our family (whether they stick by us or not) to our friends (who do stick by us – no matter what others are saying), to our enemies (who can always change their mind), and to all those in the middle.  (I’m not an easy person to like)
