I love Halloween, but I have never able to figure out why I like it so much. Is it the trick or treaters? Is it the weather? Or does Halloween just naturally feel spooky?

Halloween has a lot of pagan origins to it. It actually dates back to the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain. The celts celebrated their New Year on November 1. They resided in what is now Ireland, the United Kingdom, and northern France. The celts believed that on October 31, the line between the worlds of the living and the dead thinned. On this night, they would build bonfires and wear costumes generally made from animal skins. They would sacrifice animals and burn crops.

I don't know about anyone else, but I really love Fall. I love the temperature and the way everything changes. It's more comfortable to go outside. Of a morning, everything is so calm, and it gives me time to go out on the balcony and just think and pray. It's a wonderful time for me to reflect on my life and just be grateful for the things that I have in it.

I wanted to take the time to wish everyone here a wonderful Thanksgiving. Out of the places I blog, I really enjoy the crowd here. A wonderful group of people seem to frequent this website. I've read alot of wonderful posts, and I have enjoyed seeing everyone's opinions on different matters.

Thanksgiving is a day that has been celebrated for hundreds of years. And if you think about it, it's a truly wonderful day. No matter how bad things may be, I'm sure each and every one of us have something to be grateful for.
