Storybox Playlist: A Season of Gratitude and Community
When I moved away from home, I lived far enough away that coming home for Thanksgiving was expensive and I couldn’t make that happen every year — but it was still very important to me. So I organized with other friends who were staying in town and it ended up becoming a tradition of gathering together every year. Each person invited brought a dish and we made a community gathering of friends. I’d make gratitude leaves and we’d all write one thing we were grateful for that year. This tradition has continued for ten years now. With gratitude and community in mind, I’ve gathered some of my favorite Sparkle Stories to help your family be inspired to gather in gratitude with your local community this holiday season.
