Thanksgiving Day is a day is a time of gratitude. I’m thankful for:
- A good family who cares, listens, and feels;
- Good friends who remember our family in small acts of kindness;
- A very rewarding job that provides a deep well of opportunities to learn about the world;
- Daily moments of wonder and mystery that allow me to reflect on how limited my understanding is of our existence;
- Constant reminders on how I need to be more compassionate for those who struggle beyond my awareness;
- Uncertainty, which keeps me searching for new knowledge instead of just holding on to what is finite and comfortable;
- Animal companions at home who don’t hold grudges and love you no matter how hard your day has been;
- Nature and the mountains where we live, a place where I can hike, run, and soak in solitude and wonder;
- A warm home, something so many people live without in despair;
- The lessons of struggle to humble me;
- Strength to rise each morning;
- Food and clothing;
- Contentment;
- Inner peace;
- Me.
What are you thankful for?

-By the time of hardship and trials upcoming the next year, Tet bring us the motivation and bravery by sound advice from senior in the family.
-Tet heals all the pain that took place in the old year and paves the new pathway and ideas for next delight year.
-Through Tet we can also have the chance to enhance our cooking skill by means of handing on cooking foods for rituals and ceremonys. It needs a lot of efforts and serious since the food would be displayed in altar where we rememberance our passed ancestors.
