As we pause to give thanks, let’s remember that gratitude starts with kindness. Stop throwing shade for what people do or don’t eat—whether it’s meat, plants, raw milk, homemade meals, or takeout. Stop judging people for their appearance, their choices, or how they choose to live (as long as no one is harmed). We share one beautiful, fragile planet. Let’s focus on caring for ourselves and supporting each other. There’s so much to be thankful for—let’s not waste time tearing others down.
