[quote=Anonymous] As a foreigner, I was surprised and uncomfortable the first time I witnessed this as a guest at a Thanksgiving dinner - but of course I thought it was part of the day's ritual. Any other time, and I wouldn't want to participate. The host of that dinner often makes toasts at every meal expressing his various gratitudes, while he spends the rest of his life whining and raging. Expressive personality, that guy! I'm deeply grateful to be alive and to have loving friends and family, but I practice daily mindfulness and meditate about it instead of emoting publicly about it![/quote]
