It is a way to be thankful that we are here at all, and to give thanks to the Lord for putting a roof over our head and putting food on our plate.
It started in the 1620's, when the pilgrims first came to Plymouth, they were having a terrible time, when the Indians began to help them, they did better, and they all lived in harmony. After a bountiful harvest, the Indians and the pilgrims came together and had a huge feast and thanked God that they were doing well and prospering.

How did people celebrate thanks giving?
I'm Canadian, but both US and Canada celebrate Thanksgiving. It started with the original puritans or pioneers giving thanks for the harvest of the year and all blessings they have received from God, by having a day filled with a bountiful harvest on the dinner table. The is mainly of Christian heritage, but the act of thanksgiving is not just for that day only, but started with native Americans and the putitans and pioneers.
