November 27, 2014 is the glorious day we will sit around our dining room tables that are exquisitely adorned with all types of delicious food. Most of us recognize the Thanksgiving holiday as a time for stuffing ourselves to the brim with our favorite holiday foods and a time when we are supposed to be thankful. If we are asked what we are thankful for, many of us will go for the cliché: family, friends, health, and of course, food. But there are many trivial blessings that are constantly overlooked. Here are just a few of the many things we forget to be thankful for in our daily lives.
