Community and togetherness and pass the mashed potatoes, please. Good tidings, safe tidings and tidying up when things get messy. 

Gratitude and humility, and experienced in the art of giving back. 

It should be be a simple thing, to live by this mantra of thankfulness — around the table, around the block and around the world. Give it a go. There’s nothing to lose.
