Happy Thanksgiving from the Sentinel.  May the spirit of the holiday touch you all.  The myth is that one day pilgrims and Native Americans found a common bound in their collective struggle to live and prosper on this continent. The two groups all brought something to the table and feasted and gave thanks for the blessings of their lives. While history undercuts those sentiments, and while the push of commercialism and cynicism may overwhelm, we hope the spirit of this uniquely American holiday survives. May you find common ground in your family, with your friends and community.  May you reach out to others across the table and give thanks for your the good things in life.  May peace be with you all.
