Jennifer Horgan: Thanksgiving: It's not easy to find a balance between morality and joy

There’s a time and place for everything and I put being kind above being right

We live in a world where many people feel it is genuinely hard to enjoy anything without feeling guilt because we carry the pain of thousands.

I’m very lucky to have American neighbours and I’m even luckier that they’re inviting us over for Thanksgiving dinner this Saturday.

We went last year and it was an absolute feast of pies and sides. It was gorgeous to sit with friends from the afternoon into the evening, munching away at their multi-plated delicious treats — turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, and pumpkin pie.
