In Japan, we dont really celebrate Thanksgiving.. It's not a nationwide holiday, nor do people bring it up mostly because it's not a part of our culture. Im new to Thanksgiving. I've never celebrated it, and i think im fine with keeping that, and if my kids want to celebrate it as they get older thats fine, but i dont think I'll implement it. Tomorrow is just a normal day for me.
I love thanksgiving for the food too. I do like it for what it is meant to represent (although I know the real history behind it 😩). But it's a nice concept. One day where everyone collectively expresses their gratitude for all that they have.
Your fiancee also doesn't celebrate? Did you celebrate Japan's Thanksgiving day back home?
@mujerstillregal Thanksgiving in Japan is a thing only because we saw it in America. It's called labor thanksgiving because it's seen more as a day to honor people who work. In Japan; most japanese people do not celebrate Thanksgiving very widely. It's acknowledged but we don't celebrate it.
@mujerstillregal it's not seen as a big deal, some japanese families may do a small "special" dinner but most Japanese people across Japan don't celebrate it as an actual holiday or important day.
@michimart yeah, America has a way of setting a trend.
I think i got blocked from a post. 😂 My first. It's fine Im cool with it.
im really sick of hearing people dont think I can handle a natural birth and it's people that have never seen me in pain, I was also told most of the family thinks she will come early
Im trying to get my thanksgiving list made. Any dessert ideas? I was thinking of a hershey's pie and banana pudding
ok ladies no judgment but i havent called to make an obgyn appointment yet because honestly i just dont feel like going yet i was thinking of calling to make an appointment when i hit 12-14 weeks the few people who know im pregnant think im crazy for waiting
I’ve never really cared for thanksgiving too much. I enjoy the food but the meaning behind thanksgiving has always made my brain turn automatically to the genocide of native Americans. This year I’m gonna make some ham and stuff but I’ve never really gone out of my way for it.
