I liken"Thanksgiving" to the "Perfect Storm"! The term a "perfect storm" is an expression that describes an event where a rare combination of circumstances will result in an event of unusual magnitude.
The Oxford English Dictionary has published references going back to 1718 for “perfect storm,” though the earliest citations use the phrase positively, as in a “perfect storm” of applause. The first use of the expression in the meteorological sense comes from the March 20, 1936, issue of the Port Arthur News in Texas where the weather bureau described a "flood" as "the perfect storm".Since that time "perfect storm" seems to denote something negative!
I'm incline to use the term in a more "Positive way".......
Families gather together_some people anticipate family gatherings with joyful expectations;others with dread!Expectation is actually a powerful state of mind_remain centered within_ to share and "Bee Thankful" for the Blessings of Family on Thanksgiving!
One goes deep within to search the "Soul" for the many blessings received throughout the year.
The colors of "Nature" surrounding our lives are vibrant...and here in Texas I'm sure "Mother Nature" is thankful the heat has moved on.
The "Harvest" is bountiful_bringing the "Fruits of the Earth"....
Enhancing the "Fruit of the Spirit".
The Robo-phone calls have stopped,TV Election Ads are done & done,the he said,she said is temporarily on hold,YES_Elections are over here in America!...the storm of epic proportions!
Well for two more years at least...
There are many other "rare combinations of circumstances that will result in an event of unusual magnitude"....of epic proportions_"The Perfect Storm of Perfection"_
Thanksgiving!
