A traditional day

When the pilgrims first came to America they were in search of freedom. They wanted the freedom to worship God freely. When the pilgrims came to this great nation many did not survive the first winter. Later they came to meet some Indians who taught them how to plant corn and many other things. In return when the food was harvested they invited the Indians to feast with them. The pilgrims made this a way to thank God for what they had. It was the start of a new tradition. Now each year we gather together with family and friends and share what we are most grateful for just as the pilgrims did with the Indians on that special day. It is a special holiday for me because I can be with the ones I love and I can share how special they are to me.

getting a pet?

When getting a pet, there are things you must consider. One must think about how often he or she will be home. Some pets need to be close to people at all times. Usually, dogs are in this category. Try to think about whether or not this animal could affect your health in any way. Some animals can cause allergic reactions. Different animals are used to different habitats. You should ask yourself, "How much space will my pet need according to their size and species?" Some pets need to live in bigger homes rather than tiny apartments. If you ever consider getting a pet, think it through carefully for your sake and the pets.
