Thank You
Have you ever had the opportunity to say a simple thank you and have let the opportunity pass? Thanksgiving is the perfect opportunity to make up for the time passed without that simple thank you. I have passed up many opportunities to say thanks, but I’m not going to let this opportunity fall though the cracks. I would like to thank you to my mom, the friends that I have had my whole life, and my principal of six years.
I would like to thank my mom. She has always been there for me, and has stood by my side when I have needed her the most. My mom is truly one of my best friends, and I know that I could tell her anything. She shuttles me wherever I need to go. She puts up with all of my attitude and the crap that I put her through. She sacrificed many things to put me through eleven years of private school. When we moved to Canal she listened to all of my ranting and raving because I thought that this place would be horrible. I love my mom and I always will and I know that she will always love me. Thank you mom for always being on my side.
I would like to thank the group of people that I have hung out with all of my life. I know that these are my true friends, and they will always be there for me. We have all grown up together, and we consider each other family. They have always been there for me. When my uncle johnny died they were by my side. When I would get in trouble, or ...

  • Thanksgiving Poem Thanks By Merwin

    768 Words  | 2 Pages

    Common curtesy has us saying “Thanks” to the point that we may have lost the intentions associated with the response. W.S. Merwin sums up this anomaly in his poem “Thanks”, saying “with nobody listening we are saying thank you” (Merwin 29). We say thanks for so many meaningless things that it no longer carry’s the true intent of the speaker. Instead it is a response to acknowledge the receiver rather than giving true thanks. This repetition allows for questions regarding what are we truly thankful for, and how we make this known to the receiver. Carl Dennis, in his poem, “Thanksgiving Letter From Harry”, struggles with this question. Not seeing himself thankful for all the negative atrocities around him, he tries to find something he can stand up and be thankful for with limited success, “I’m, thankful today I don’t reside in a country/My country has chosen to liberate” (Dennis 2-3). Generic overuse of such a simple, but meaningful word, has made saying “thanks” somewhat mundane, making it harder to express their gratitude to the receiver seamlessly.

  • Cultural Values and Norms of Americans: Thanksgiving

    946 Words  | 2 Pages

    The primary purpose of Thanksgiving Day is to unite together, and give thanks to God for the bounties and blessings that He gave us during the previous year. I made sure to arrive on the time I was expected to, as I knew Americans shows respect for being on time. There were five members in the family, a husband and wife, and their three children. The house was made clean, decorated with hangings and other beautiful accessories like holiday candles, and images of turkeys, and autumn fruits and vegetables, placed on several tables and the walls around the house. Another family, a couple and their two kids, were also invited as guests. Everyone was dressed in their best clothes, and was in a joyful, cheerful mood to enjoy the event. We were gathered around the table, everyone said grace and their respective thanks to God before starting lunch. It felt warm and comforting, sitting together with love, appreciation and concern for each other. The conversation flowed around the table, and nobody was left out. Even the pet of the house, a large hairy dog sat few feet away, enjoying his meal and being a part of th...

    You came into my life and changed me forever.  Over the years people have complimented me for being a good mother but I can't take credit for that.  You were born good and you were the one who was often teaching me.  I believe you are an angel God sent to teach me.  You taught me love.  You taught me honesty.  You taught me how to forgive and how to be strong.  You are the strongest person I have ever known and you gave me strength when I was weak.  When times were sad and tough I looked to you for strength.  You taught me how to be myself.  Most of all you taught me about life and how to live.

    I went through a lot when I was in school and home; it was very over whelming. Honestly I could not have done it without her. I had a lot of people coming down on me form students to teachers and principals to my situation at home. It was really difficult to deal with but she was my rock. I could always be myself around her; I was able to talk to her, being my goofiest, we were inseparable. But sometimes people change for the worst or for the best. Unfortunately for her it was the worst or maybe that’s how she always we; and of course I changed for the best! I will always be grateful for everything she’s done for me, but I will no longer make excuses for her and I will no longer be walked on. Let’s be real; that was in fact what she was doing for

  • Doing M For My Mom

    288 Words  | 1 Pages

    The reason why I am doing M for my Mom is because there are many things in life that my mom has done for me that I would not be capable of doing myself. To give one example if my mom were to not be here right now I would not be able to have a roof over my head, clothes on my back, or even be here right at this moment. She is my lifesaver, she has been there for me ever since I was born. For me I would have to say that if a child is born without a mother then they would not be able to get through life as easily as, if they lived with there father. Mom’s are there for you 99.99% percent of the time for you, when you are feeling bummed out she is there for you, if you are having a bad day your mom will be there for you because that is why they
