Growing up, people would always say "You learn something new each day.". Well; I am learning that it is true. The word New, means "lately coming into knowledge, fresh or unused, unaccustomed, or recently/lately". So it doesn't necessarily mean that you have never before heard something but that it has now finally become knowledge. And the word Learn means “to gain by experience, to become informed of or acquainted with". So really the new thing I/we learn is just some fresh information. Or it can also be something that we are unaccustomed to that we gain by experience. I don't believe that when you hear something you learn it. You learn it once you can apply it physically or mentally. You learn it once you understand it. I also believe that everything happens for a reason, and that we come to realize things on certain days for a reason. So everyday I will be sharing with you the new thing that I learn or realize, hoping that you can learn from it as I did.

Feel free to comment or even post about your own realization or new thing that was learned.

Of course Thanksgiving.

Today is thanksgiving. Lots of food that was eaten and many new memories were made. This is the day when everyone says why or what they are thankful for. Why do we only do that on this certain day? It isn't out of the ordinary, it is in our comfort zone because it is what we are supposed to be doing. I sometimes find thanksgiving the day were we think of the thing(s) that we should be thankful for, have been thankful for, want to be thankful for, or it is when we realize what we are thankful for. Which I suppose is what we should do.We should try to be thankful for things everyday, not just on this Holiday. I know I say a lot of things that we should do and I'm in no means trying to say I have mastered it. That is why I say 'we' and not 'you'. I am trying to work too.
