A blast of unseasonable cold has struck Cincinnati for Thanksgiving 2024, but I plan to have a good holiday nonetheless. I may even make it into the gym later today.
I hope that you, Dear Reader, will spend the day with people you love. If half of your friends/relatives voted for Trump, and half for Harris (a statistical likelihood throughout most of the country) dinnertime discussion may be interesting, to say the least.
Keep your cool and try to make the best of it. Remember that politics always change, but Thanksgiving remains the same, coming back year after year.
Just look at the above artwork from Norman Rockwell, 1919. The image is as inviting today as it was 105 years ago.
I love many people who, for whatever reason, don’t see the world through the same lenses I do. You likely do, too; and should.
I shall return on Friday. In the meantime, I hope you have a happy and safe Thanksgiving 2024.
