Jane Austen’s Thanksgiving Prayer.

Jane Austen's Thanksgiving prayer. (A Jane Austen quote.)

“Give us a thankful sense of the blessings in which we live, of the many comforts of our lot, that we may not deserve to lose them by discontent or indifference.” – Jane Austen

Wishing a very happy Thanksgiving to all you Americans celebrating today.

And whether it’s Thanksgiving Day for you or not, please know that I’m thankful for you. Truly.

– Anne
