Inspirational Storyteller, Speaker, Best-selling Author And Coach, Dr. Nina Kelly, Ruminates About The Thanksgiving Holiday

Inspiring storyteller, writer and speaker, Dr. Nina Kelly anticipates the arrival of Thanksgiving with thoughts that may inspire readers to treat every day as a day of ‘thanks-giving.’

New Orleans, LA – December 2, 2019 – Dr. Nina M. Kelly, Inspirational Storyteller, Coach, Author and Co-Author of The Big Question with Larry King, and Success Mastery and Success Breakthroughs with Jack Canfield, recently posted a new blog on her website entitled, “The Season Of Thanking And Giving,” in which Dr. Kelly shares her thoughts and her thanks.

Dr. Kelly writes, ““Thanksgiving,” what a lovely word.” She continues adding, “It is so associated with the kickoff celebration to the holiday season in the month of November that the word is rarely used in other months. I find that fascinating.”

“To most Americans,” says Dr. Kelly, “the word ‘Thanksgiving’ conjures up visions of roasted turkey stuffed with savory dressing, mashed potatoes and gravy, cranberries and green beans, pumpkin, pecan and apple pies, among other delicious items. Families and friends sit around the table laden with the Thanksgiving feast and perhaps share a thing or two they are each thankful for.” She elaborates further, “It is a lovely holiday in celebration of the bountiful lives with which we have been gifted. The abundance of food, family, friends our lives are enriched with deserve this day of acknowledgement and gratitude.”
