It’s Thanksgiving Day in Canada (October 13th, 2008), and I’m very thankful for:

- My health.
- My family, brothers, sisters-in-law, nieces and nephews, my Dad and my Mom, my cousins, my uncles and aunts, and extended family.
- My friends, both online and off line.
- The opportunities I’ve received throughout the years for personal and professional growth.
- Living in Canada. I love this country and I think it loves me back.
- Having still a deep connection with Mexico. Because I owe Mexico a lot.
- My successes, and my failures. Because I’ve learned from my mistakes and I’ve relished in my triumphs.
- Having had the opportunity to fall in love. Despite the fact that I have also been heartbroken, I know exactly what love feels like, and for that, I’m eternally grateful.
- Calling Vancouver my home. I absolutely love this city, despite its horrendous weather and sometimes difficult people (not everybody, of course – just a few).

I am thankful because I am alive, and because every day I live to the fullest. I do what I can, with what I have, wherever I am. Happy Thanksgiving!

I am aware that some of my close friends are having an early Canadian Thanksgiving. Last year I spent it with HZ and CS, as well as a few other friends.

In previous years, my PhD supervisor invited us all for Canadian Thanksgiving. This year, I think I’m going to probably have to attend at least one dinner, and I’ve noticed that it’s not as relevant to Canadians as American Thanksgiving is to Americans. So my question to you is… what are YOU doing for Canadian Thanksgiving?
