I am hosting thanksgiving dinner at my home this year. The problem is that my family is not like it used to be. When I was growing up we were extremely close, out to dinner every friday, family get togethers at least once or twice a month, we would all gather for dinner at my grams a couple times a week for dinner, then as I got older things changed. There are hard feelings, grudges being held, in law problems, nasty attitudes and sarcastic comments, bitterness, and in the midst of it all I have many many cousins that are missing out on what I once had. So my question is this. Is there anything I can do at thanksgiving that can help to open peoples eyes and show them that life is too short. That we should be letting love prevail. A poem, a story an activity, something. Please I need some advice.
