On Thanksgiving, it is a tradition to mindfully appreciate the good in our lives and recognize all the people who support us. Everyone’s story is unique with many blessings as well as challenges, and it is a good time to be thankful and to realize that others may not be as lucky. Listening with an open heart as others tell their stories can be inspirational and provide insight into your own life. Dive into a great memoir during the holiday season; it may be eye-opening, educational, relatable, heartbreaking and hopeful. Reading this genre can lead to a better understanding of humanity and to developing more empathy, allowing us to see how others see the world. Be thankful for your own beautiful story and enjoy some of these incredibly personal ones as we approach the final month of 2021.
