Thanks you very for your reply

Dear Torsten,

THANKSGIVING means when you say or show that you are grateful, especially to God

Thanksgiving (Day)
A public holiday and celebration, held on the fourth Thursday of November in the US and on the second Monday of October in Canada, to remember the thanks that the people who first came from Europe gave to God when they gathered crops for the first time in their new country.

Regards

The origin of the word Thanksgiving comes from the Bible. Go to the book of Deuteronomy and read ch16:13-16. Thanksgiving is a celebration day for everybody and it has deeper meaning than the dinner is.

Hi Torsten,
I couldn't come in the forum due to my busy schedule in the business. However, I am much happy that you remember me and sent the e-mail. I couldn’t receive any mail in your side for a long time.

It will be better if you send me all e-mail regarding forum.

Thanks and have a nice thankgiving day


Beautiful Day

Too often we underestimate the

Power of a touch, a smile, a kind word,

A listening ear, an honest compliment,

Or the smallest act of caring,

All of which have the potential

To turn a life around…...!
